They're in the Hillary camp for now, it seems!
Politico leads with new polling this morning showing that identity politics, specifically white women, are proving to be an early source of Hillary's polling success.
It's not clear that this will carry past the Democratic primaries into the general. White women generally have tended to vote Republican in recent elections. Further, people's allegiances don't appear to be rock solid. There's a framing effect and the degree to which folks will support Hillary tend to vary based on who the question pits here against.
Nonetheless, this continues to shape up to be an election that could tear down our old assumptions about which groups side with whom and who will be pandered to.
