Stupid leftists,the backlash from Southerners is going to be epic.
Actually, I was thinking this may be the Democrats’ own “Southern Strategy”. By getting Republican Governors to agree to tear down the flag (that Democrats put up), they will disaffect enough Southerners against the GOP to get them to stay home in 2016, giving Hillary a clear path to the White House.
What are they going to do, vote even more Republican?
You bring up a point that had occurred to me in the midst of the fuss yesterday: either Democrat strategists have written off the South completely or this was a major, major screw-up. The problem with these things is that once started they have a momentum of their own, and if we end up with Social Justice Warrior hit squads going after street signs in the small town South you can pretty much write off the next election. Or elections. And that's assuming they make it out alive.
Agreed. I follow the Dukes of Hazzard fan page on Facebook and there are many, many people who are very angry with Warner Brothers, Walmart, Amazon, and the Democrats over this whole thing, particularly concerning the General Lee’s Confederate flag controversy.
The left is stupid, but they seem to be winning.
