“The GOP would do much better in hispanic and black areas if they emphasized social issues. Instead they often pick some pro-gay white guy with $$$ and wonder why they always lose.”
Good point.
But when they made an exception in a NY extremely liberal district, the Republican WON!
Many liberal districts are actually very socially conservative! Blacks, hispanics, blue collar Catholics, urban Orthodox Jews. Liberals hate their values but win them over by promising government handouts and scaring them away from the (these are not my words) racist white Republicans or the evangelicals who will force Jewish kids to celebrate Christmas and only care about Israel because it’s part of the final plan to destroy the world or something.
