They also were wrong that siding with fraudulently documented foreigners against the citizens and the rule of law was popular.
Not so much forgot about Rural America as much as openly declared (political) war upon Rural America.
I always liked Beckel on Fox’s The Five. Better than Whining Juan.
Yup. They forgot the every day guy who works every day, raises his family and pays his taxes. Most of the people who do that are White.
More than that, Democrats forgot about COMMON SENSE.
“They also were wrong that siding with fraudulently documented foreigners against the citizens and the rule of law was popular.”
To be completely fair to the leftist freaks, it was VERY popular in November 2008.
If Beckel wrote this, which is not certain, then there are times he is not inebriated.
Or maybe he only gets drunk when he’s appearing on tv.
Beckel who said, on election day, there was a 1-2 percent chance of Trump winning the election admits he was wrong.

Nope. He’s trying to invent excuses as to why he wasn’t right. Big difference.
The DNC is and has been wholly owned by an ideology hostile to the very existence of a sovereign US of A and that does everything possible to harm, diminish and eventually destroy us.
Unless and until the degenerate, thumb-sucking, mouth-breeding snot-gobblers can own up to that, they’ll be wrong in every call they make because they’ll have no clue as to what cause to attach the effect.
That was Frumpy, I mean Frum.
openly declared (political) war upon Rural America.
That they did....and they sneered at Rural America....and still do.
Andif the GOP forgts about stopping excessive and illegal immigration and dos notlive up ti its promise to end unfair trade agreements that give power to liberal elites and then just lowers taxes on the wealthy and just takes care of the Chamber of Commerce, then these rural voters are not going to be so eager to come out and vote for the Republican again.
That is how I described the election to some teenagers. The Hunger Games election, where they pit us against each other while they fix the contest so they always win. The kids got it. They started pointing out the money and freaks on the left. Now, I've reminded them about the CW that comes in sequels and to prepare for it.
Sometimes, I called it the Revenge of the Nerds election. All of us quiet people - tired of being looked down upon and bullied to fit into their world- voted in mass. To the Dems we say "You're jocks. Go live in the gym."
Actually, they did not forget about us they have a name for us “ a basket of deplorables” and they misunderestimated our numbers.
And with those two resume enhancers, especially the stellar performance of one Walter Mondale in 1984 who was soundly trounced in perhaps the largest landslide victory in American politics, why would anyone listen to him on election night and now?
Another benefit from Trump's election is to see these idiots grovel and try to twist themselves into pretzels trying to explain how they were so right before they were so wrong.
Beckel was a loser before and now he is even a bigger loser. My question is this. Why is this guy and all the other pundits and talking heads who got it so wrong, still on TV?
Beckel and other "experts" are the source for many of the "fake news" that the media spews out.
USDA Secretary Justifies Agenda 21, Says Rural America Less and Less Relevant
Last week Tom Vilsack, secretary of the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), speaking at a forum sponsored by Farm Journal, claimed that rural America has become less and less relevant. Vilsack went on to say that Its time for us to have an adult conversation with folks in rural America. Its time for a different thought process here, in my view. Vilsack asserts that with more and more Americans moving into urbanized city-centers, the farming communities in rural areas are not necessary in order to supply the US with food and other necessities. He believes that these areas of land would be better served without having to direct energy and resources to them.
In fact, Vilsack stated that a farming policy that facilitated the reality of rural America with a shrinking population is becoming less and less relevant to the politics of this country, and we had better recognize that and we better begin to reverse it.
Don't think the Nature Conservancy is done with america.
Too many well meaning oldsters are giving their land to the new world order for safe keeping - they don't know the truth - fake news reigns supreme.
