Do people in the MS GOP even know what a computer is, or even use one?

Why, yes we do.

Obviously, otherwise they wouldn't be on Facebook.

I think this is more of an indicator of which base is more of a pain in the ass: the Mississippi hound doggies who sleep with their sisters and are afraid of black chillruns eat'n their chikuns, or the obviously superior college educated open minded not at all bigoted smart intelligent intellectual city and beach lovin non-inbred Connecticut folk?
Which one is the bigger pain in the ass?  Probably the Connecticut folks, because more of them are on F***ing Facebook and therefore probably have more ridiculous updates that nobody cares about and the group probably sends out more meaningless spam mostly to people who probably would rather commit suicide with a cheese grater to the head than entertain any more of those worthless notifications but are too lazy to do anything about it (which is how most groups with thousands of fans (I remember when they were members) operate).
At least racism can be funny occasionally.

This is because Connecticut Republicans are actually classified as Democrats within Real America.

Keep in mind, being a minority politically kind of has an impact.

I think the explanation might be that there are a lot of people in Connecticut (specially CT-05 and 04) that define themselves as Republicans, even though they may have voted for Obama for president, and maybe even Blumenthal in the Senate election last year.
The same think might not be true for Mississipi, which used to be a One-Party state at the local level until a few years back.
