It's worth remembering that Hispanics, while many are small business owners, are by and large poorer than the average American and certainly do not respond well to the GTH/GFY rhetoric the Republicans have adopted on economic issues.

Regarding Asians, the anti-intellectualism and anti-science mentality hurts them. The Chinese certainly aren't doing anything to help mitigate global warming, but do you seriously think the scientists and engineers who run the Chinese Communist Party deny that it exists or say that it's part of some kind of divine plan? In Asian culture, teachers are respected, well-paid members of society. Ranting about them being "union thugs" and seeking to cut their pay and benefits doesn't help in that regard either.

Agreed on Clinton, there also have been reports that Bill is still thinking about wherever Hillary should run, because he is worried about his legacy.

Hillary will underperform among youth, hispanics, African Americans, probably asians, and hold the line on white voters. Any effort to make the south competitive will involve cannibalizing their numbers among African Americans. You'll see better GOP performance in general among more diverse demographics, but you'll also see white share of the vote increase.

Hillary is more popular among Hispanics than Obama; she killed him among Hispanics in the '08 primaries and the Clinton infrastructure in Hispanic Democratic circles has been firmly entrenched since her husband's first campaign. She'll get over 60% of the vote in California easily and probably in New Mexico too as long as Martinez isn't on the ticket.
