I wonder if having Rick Santorum on the ticket would help in Pennsylvania? He lost by a lot in 2006 but perhaps the local voters like the idea of one of their own in the White House.
We told Ray.
We told him the Muslim didn’t have experience.
We showed him the spiteful hateful racist Curch the man went to for 20 years.
We asked for his records then, but the Media helped him hide them, even as they still do.
But Ray and these other people insisted that Obama could heal racial wounds(boy did that go wrong)that Obama was well-spoken and clean. They listened to one speech and had an orgasm.
Now many people like Ray have seen the debt this guy has put on us, they are getting a first look at the travesty of Obamacare, they have seen his racist Attorney general,They are getting ready to turn on the lights to higher energy bills gasoline will be $4.00 soon and stiil a lot of Rays havent gotten the message.
eke out a win with gentry whites...
Are there no gentry blacks?
Jacksonian blacks?
Why are only white labels used?
Some people just never learn
As of last week, Rick was the highest polling GOP candidate in PA. Previously it was Newt. Rick lost the state in a very bad year against a PA legacy. All of the right wingers I know here are Santorum fans and generally say they are going to vote for him if he is still running by the time we have the Primary. Our Primary is so late we generally don’t get to decide anything.
-——Are there no gentry blacks?——
None.
We learned from Coming to America that blacks have royalty. There is a subclass of “ I marched with martin” and another sub class of rappers
I left out that most are just ordinary folks
Pittsburgh - Steeler country. They worship Baraq because the owner is his biggest booster.
My friend has one of those stickers. She had an Obama-Biden sticker previously. She worked on Obama’s inauguration and will be working toward his re-election. She still thinks he can do no wrong. Sad. A normally very bright woman and a devout Methodist. But still, she worships the devil.
Rick lost in 2006 to a guy who ran as a conservative (pro-life, pro-gun) democrat in a bad year for republicans.
This year he’ll be running against a liberal, anti-gun, anti life democrat.
“I drive through Pittsburgh every morning and night”.
I pity you-some of the worst traffic I’ve ever seen!
I made 7 trips there between March 2010 and May 2011 and didn’t dare speak my mind about Obummer. By the time of my last couple of trips, people were increasingly vocal in their criticism.
Just sayin’...
Good point; PA hasn’t had a president since James Buchanan.
As far as I can tell, Catholics actually voted for Mclame over President O in the 2008 Pa election, 52-48, one of the few states where he did. Here’s one article I found on that.
“In Pennsylvania, Obama won 55 percent of the vote and McCain 44 percent, but Catholics favored McCain by 52 percent to 48 percent.
What distinguishes those states, Gray noted, is that in each at least one bishop issued statements that leaned strongly toward telling voters they should vote only for candidates of the party that supports overturning Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion virtually on demand.”

I recall seeing that again after the election in 2008, but not from here. I hope it is true. If it is true, this later thing is bigger than the bishop’s warnings in 2008, it is in the media more, and more bishops are upset. He’s even got Catholic dem pundits upset, which is an amazing feat. I think the majority of bishops actually said something or released something.

I have it down to a science. I travel from northwest of the airport to East Liberty -- about 35 miles one way. Usually the longest I wait in traffic is about 15 minutes. I never go though the tunnel.
I am originally from Coraopolis. Lived there years ago.
We’re going down to Pittsburgh (from Indiana County) on Tuesday. Mr S has to have a pacemaker put in. We travel rte 28 from Kittanning. I hate that drive......
As far as Barack backing the Steelers - All of Western Pa is Steeler country, whether lib or conservative. It was that way long before Obama came along. Obama’s just an annoyance! Remember that Rush Limbaugh is a big Steeler fan as well!
Because blacks in PA, whether working-class, middle-class or upper-class, and whether from Philly, Pittsburgh or anywhere in between, vote 90%-95% Democrat. Black voters, as a group, aren’t what one would call swing voters.
I look forward to the day in which blacks cast their votes base on their own values and economic interest, like the rest of voters do, but, sadly, that won’t be the case in 2012, particularly with Obama running for reelection against a white guy.
Does not mean it cannot happen, but beware. These fickle voters may yet again do the same thing...
