"Why do Liberals believe that people who vote against them are uneducated hicks?"
Because we are not as 'tolerant' as they are.
It's a smokescreen. The Democratic Party claims to be the Party for the underdog yet there is a direct correlation of where the wealth in America and support for the Democratic Party exists. Liberals apply the derogatory term "hick" to the very people they used to crow about supporting. The Democratic Party has evolved into a party blinded by their own elitism. Hillary would be wise to avoid pursuing her plantation analogy too far.
