With Mary Landrieu’s ignominious exit, the Democrats will have lost their last senator in the Deep South. And that’s a good thing. They should write it off—because they don’t need it.
I don’t remember a much sadder sight in domestic politics in my lifetime than that of Mary Landrieu schlumpfing around these last few weeks trying to save a Senate seat that was obviously lost. It was like witnessing the last two weeks of the life of a blind and toothless dog you knew the vet was just itching to destroy. I know that sounds mean about her, but I don’t intend it that way. She did what she could and had, as far as I know, an honorable career. I do, however, intend it to sound mean about the reactionary, prejudice-infested place she comes from. A toothless dog is a figure of sympathy. A vet who takes pleasure in gassing it is not.
And that is what Louisiana, and almost the entire South, has become. The victims of the particular form of euthanasia it enforces with such glee are tolerance, compassion, civic decency, trans-racial community, the crucial secular values on which this country was founded… I could keep this list going. But I think you get the idea. Practically the whole region has rejected nearly everything that’s good about this country and has become just one big nuclear waste site of choleric, and extremely racialized, resentment. A fact made even sadder because on the whole they’re such nice people! (I truly mean that.)

Meanwhile, this bigoted, insulting screed from Micheal Tomasky laments the passing of the miseries suffered by the South under Democrat Control.
Too late for the demonRATS to dump Dixie.
Dixie has already dumped the demonRATS.
The South would be happy to have the leftist, communist states who no longer believe in the US Constitution secede from the Union.
The ENTIRE country needs a Dem DUMP!!!
The Dems can dump the south and be just fine as long as they still have the support of GOP establishment PUKES like Haley Barbour and Thad Cochrane....
I wish the Republican Party would stop writing off CA.
With a few extra resources we could have picked up five to six extra congressional districts that proved to be very tight.
Instead the Dems had net pick up of one. Really depressing.
“tolerance, compassion, civic decency, trans-racial community, the crucial secular values on which this country was founded”
Oh barf on so many levels - trying to sneak in that the Founders were “secular”, and that VALUES - rather, morals - are “secular”.
“Practically the whole region has rejected nearly everything that’s good about this country”
Yep, that’s a lefty all right, it’s not right unless it’s THEIR way. EFF OFF AHOLE.
” They should write it off—because they don’t need it.”
Well.....BYE!
For reference, check out the O’keefe video when he confronts the Louisiana Dem Party chief of communications— the head of it— confronts her in her office and she .....RUNS away as he threatens her with lawsuits for lying about his actions. The look of fear on her face- is hilarious. After she tells him— “this is private property” LOL. Like they care about private property.
It’s on breitbart, or listed on Drudge today. Great fun.
She is whiter than white, and is NOT Southern by her accent.
The South is better than anything they could fake up.

Somehow, people are very nice but they also manage to be “bad”. I’m always mystified by that viewpoint.
Also, LOL at a liberal/commie stating there is ANYthing good about this country. Their whole lives are dedicated to changing it to the Soviet Union because it is ALWAYS bad, ALWAYS in the wrong.
A toothless dog is a figure of sympathy. A vet who takes pleasure in gassing it is not.
Yet he is a person who thinks a baby is a problem and
an abortionist who takes pleasure in destroying it a hero.
Dope and casino funding is tough to fight. Since that is how CA greases it’s control at the state house level. They are all getting greased. Ask any farmer in CA. The pot heads run the show... they and the queers.
I wholeheartedly agree. The races in California tend to be expensive, but that’s really the point — the Demwits are on the tipping point everywhere, making them spend more resources on races previously considered safe would benefit Pubbie candidates throughout the country.
If Democrats did write us off in the South we would be better off without them.
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM
BANG BANG BANG BANG
This Georgia boy cordially invites you to say those words to my face. Let's meet in Statesboro.
Micheal Tomasky is correct! It is long past time for them to leave and let this area proper without their interference. Please, dump us at the state and local levels as well as the feds.
You let your cat demonRAT on your lawn?
Mr. Tomasky,
I believe you have it backwards. The South is dumping the Democrats and it is way past time.
