Well Mr. Flax, mrustow may not say it but I will.
That's precisely where MS *is* (& all other southern "Baptist Belt" states, for that matter).
You recall what *they* did to Bush's fed court judge nominee from Mississippi recently, don'tcha?
Then of course you also remember something else too, "how" they borked 'em.
Or for that matter the judge from neighboring AL?
...& isn't that the whole point?
The vote on the flag issue, strongly suggests otherwise!

Well I do.
"my guess is that the average Mississippian would like to see Justice Moore in Alabama vindicated."
*Guess*?
Look Bill, let's look at a paraphrasing of the "Rules of Engagement" as they stand today & cut the guessing, OK?
Those rules are as follows:
"Byrd is 'passing.' She is an editorialist who calls herself a reporter. And like most mainstream, socialist editorialists who pass as news reporters, Byrd takes for granted that it is righteous for black voters to be as racist as they wanna be, in voting for candidates based on the color of their skin, but suggests that whites who refuse to support black racism are automatically guilty of racism."
Get it?
That's reality today.
A majority of white people will parrot that as sure as God made little green apples.
I know, I meet 'em every day & they tell me.
No amount of denial, debating, reasoning and/or citing the constitution -- verbatim -- is going to change what we have & will continue to repeatedly witness, either.
While I admire your tenacity & spirit, the *issue(s) are also simply moving on, leaving only those who're either unable or unwilling to "call it a duck," behind.
"I do realize that in both States, you have a certain 'sophisticated' element, who think that it looks better, if they try to mouth values out of the New York Times Opinion Section; but are you telling me that the phonies have broad popular support?"
Ummm, yea!
Are you trying to tell me the phonies don't?
Explain Hillary Rodham Clinton for example, winning a seat in the senate when the old bag's no more qualified than the Cat in the Hat. (~purely rhetorical...)
For the definitive answer to the question you posed (& I vollied back) though, we must wait to see what happens in November, eh?
I say that -- solely -- because between now & November the entire force of the nation's media (all of 'em), Hollyweird and all of pop culture are going to try their damnedest to prove a point, Bill.
"The vote on the flag issue, strongly suggests otherwise!"
I suspect the Liberal-Socialists behind the failed flag banning movement haven't gone away.
They're merely regrouping, reconfiguring their strategies & if I know my Liberal-Socialist's mo correctly, than that means just one thing.
Finding a way to make [it] a "civil rights" issue & therefore get it before their activist judges.
In which case Bill, to hell with the vote.
...just as they've done so many other times, before.
As for Hillary in New York--that is New York, which sent a Communist to Congress in the World War II era, and has only had one actually Conservative Senator in my lifetime (Jim Buckley).

Not Me!! I get in trouble on black threads............FRegards
I hope well.
Good to see you're kicking around, Bar.
...few of the old guard are around anymore.
Yup, on this we will.
"I still have a few Southern contacts, and they are not as pessimistic as you."
Guard against confusing "pessimism" with "realism", Bill.
One's a sickness, the other a blessing (that may very well be a genuine saving grace).
"As for Hillary in New York--that is New York, which sent a Communist to Congress in the World War II era, and has only had one actually Conservative Senator in my lifetime (Jim Buckley)."
Well I could've mentioned Feinstein, Kennedy, DeLauro, Waxman, Dingell, Franks, Lantos, Waters & on and on if I'd really wanted to get obnoxious making my point, eh?
See, "the phonies" out there actually have "phonies" representing 'em in government, Bill; so, yes I'd say they do enjoy a [fairly] broad popular support as evidenced by their rep's very presence.
I'm sure you took all that into account, though.
...& were just being optimistic, eh? {g}
That's what's so "great" about it -- no checks, no balances.
Not Me!! I get in trouble on black threads............FRegards
LOL! It's good to hear from you.
Good back atcha.............FRegards
