Is the GOP too white and too rural?

the post-mortem is underway for the Republican Party. As frequent visitors know, this is a particular obsession of mine, so we’ll dip into this thread occasionally. What’s wrong with the GOP, what’s right, and what needs to change?

Here’s Politico’s take:

Most ominously for Republicans, the GOP is increasingly becoming less grand than old – and outdated.

As reflected in Tuesday’s results and exit polls, it’s a party that is overwhelmingly white, rural and aged in a country that is rapidly becoming racially mixed, suburban and dominated by a post-baby boomer generation with no memory of Vietnam or the familiar culture wars of the past.
