It’s not just media; the voters are often unwilling to make a change. I don’t know if that comes from laziness or stupidity, but I’ve watched it happen in PA. The same jerks are re-elected every time. Something about “well, we know what a crook he is, but we don’t know the other guy.” And they vote for the crook they know.
good point
many folks I have met from MA always say they have voted Dem all their lives and they will again.
I’m down south but I have had this conversation a few times.
“Hey you just moved here then ?”
“yes from MA”
“Why did you move?”
“It was too expensive, the high cost of living, the high taxes etc “some have even said they do not agree with the homosexual thing up there/
“Who did you vote for up there ?”
“Oh I am a Democrat, card carrying union too”
“”MMMMM so who do you think you will be voting for now you’re down here?”
“Oh that is easy I’m Democrat and and will be voting for them”
I place my head in my hands and just shrug my shoulders . I wait for a few secs and then say do you have any idea who destroyed your state? Do you want to make this state look like your old one now and ruin it for us all down here?”
“”Huh I never thought of it like that”
AARRGGHHH
