The South shall rise again....?

[rawcatslyentist]

It’s always nice to get to vote a commie out twice!

Not if the GOP caves on amnesty.

Well, I hope the Southern legislators pass laws making voter fraud a serious felony with significant monetary penalties and jail time for convicted persons and especially organization leaders.

and I hope that Southern executive leaders enforce those penalties to the maximum extent of the laws.

FReeper Enterprise insightfully noted: Democrats have a fine strategy and should "stay the course." Keep shoving Ferguson and illegal aliens in our faces....and the rest of the party's anti-family, anti-energy, anti-Christian nonsense. And make sure Al Sharpton, Sheila Jackson Lee and Elijah Cummings speak for you in coast-to coast media outlets.

=================================================

The midterm sweep left 1-2 slivers of coastal territory and splotches of interior to Dems. Dems have literally "hundreds of votes" under their control (/snix).

Democrats now control votes in the inner city, gangland strongholds, sleazy Hollywood motels, landfills, Indian reservations, pineapple plantations, fast food joints, Boston beaneries, coastal clam shacks, surf shops, flop houses, gay bathhouses, and payday loan mills.

What the Republican takeover looks like as of midnight 11/5---Alaska and LA went Republican later.

Only if there are men like Robert E. Lee and his generals to lead us.

One way or another, I sure as hell hope so.

Let’s build a fence.

The Democratic Party’s strategy has recently been based on the theory that they can count on getting close to half of white votes and the vast majority of minority votes.

If the first part of that is falling apart, they’re in real trouble.

Racial politics does not necessarily work in their interests. According the the Derb, and I agree, America has always functionally had two races: black and non-black.

Liberals have for decades pushed the opposite notion, that we are divided into two groups consisting of whites and “people of color.” But I think that notion is falling apart.

“Will GOP’s control of the South play significant role in 2016 races?” why NO of course not! Why would anyone even think that? /s/

[lonestar]

Will GOP’s control of the South play significant role in 2016 races?

Not until the South gets control of the GOP.

[rrrod]

Omitted from reports is Florida still has one lowlife sleazy scumbag RAT senator..Bill Nelson....pure phlem.

[stars & stripes forever]

Amnesty will be an equalizer.
