1. In all honesty, if you live in a white Congressional District, then no, you don't count.
Edited on Sun Nov-14-10 12:59 PM by Tesha
The White parts of the South are solidly Republican and will remain
that way for the foreseeable future, until poor white folks realize
that the GOP is using them. And you would know better than I
do when (or even "if") that will ever happen, but with all the damage
that Republicans have done to education and with their almost-total
control of the media, I don't expect folks to wise up in my lifetime.

9. In fact, I didn't go to the video.
Without a synopsis, I never go to videos linked on DU.

I merely responded to the question you posed. If you
didn't want that, you should have phrased your OP
differently.

4. How true
I can't understand why the poor white folks don't get it. Are they afraid to stand up?

3. Best lefties in the country
but you're so outnumbered where you are that you don't make a difference. Yet.

Your time might come as hard times hammer the Republican faithful harder and harder.

5. Come to California!
If I could just get you to replace a certain amount of Freepers...it would be an even deal!

10. In fact, given that the South is *NEVER* going to vote for the Democrats, ...
...it actually would be better for the country if all of the
Southern Democrats decamped to the places where the
balance *COULD* be tipped to the Democrats.

11. we won FL, VA, and NC in 08
while that still means we lost the South in terms of EV, we did better here than say in the great plains where we got 1 EV out of several states.
