He got killed among Latino and Jews. He was tied with Edwards for a distant second among whites at 22%. He struggles almost equally as much with Asians which will be important on the West Coast.

1. You have to campaign before they will vote for you unless...
....you have a name the voters have known for 16 years.

Florida is a poor state to base any expectations for the future on.

Whites, Latinos, and Asians combine for almost 90% of it. Obama has a much bigger problem.
