I saw an analysis last week about white southern voters, particularly white males. It basically said that even if they are unhappy with the Republicans, many have simply ruled out the idea of supporting the Democrats on a national level. These voters are simply off-limits to the Democratic party.
Pretty much. And it's not like it would be especially hard for the national Democrats to change that (tell the loony left where to f*** off (publically as well), moderate on social issues, tailor economic etc. positions to fit real voters... and so on and so forth).
That they haven't says something about the people running the national Democrats at the moment. Is it just me or does the following expression come to mind; "astonishingly incompetent"
Moderate on social issues = Code for starting wars for no good reason
JFern = Code for freaking hackish dumbass who thinks 940 heads and 60 Tails is statistically significant.
