In his forthcoming book, How the GOP Can Keep the White House, How the Democrats Can Take it Back , political analyst Earl Ofari Hutchinson contends that the issues that Democrats and Republicans battled over in 2000 and 2004 and the constituencies that they courted and fought over are virtually the same in 2008. Their contested constituencies are white males and females, blacks and Latinos, Christian evangelicals, young persons and gays.
The issues are the Iraq war, the economy, terrorism, health care, morality issues and immigration.
