The author of this article reeks on anti-southern sentiment. I hate it when fools like him write about how the south is full of dumb racists who refuse to embrace "change." I'm sure no one talked about the south breaking the shackles of the confederacy when they voted Republican for the first time in 1972 after being solidly Democrat since the Civil War.
Because most of the folks here are low information voters.
In my Op 9/11 did alot to regress the voters here for some odd reason,or u could say that the proof of neoconsertivsim working would be here.
The only reason people in the south voted republican, is because the dems ran away from the ways of Dixie. People in the south didn't hop on the GOP wagon because they wanted change.
The Op is right.
