watching CSPAN online

Major Garrett called in and talked about Romney...

Romney is in NY raising money..

he said he was so surprized that Romney didnt win Tennessee...

after all TN was an old Confederate state and Romney should have done well in the old Confederate states

Im going WHAT ???

Major is as ignorant as his hero Romney...

TN wasnt an Old Confederate state

TN was part Union ..

The Union army was in Nashville early in the war and never left

My county was Union and so were a few others...

I wonder if Major eats grits and can say y’all ...

Though the old slave state going for Romney would fit for obvious reasons if David Duke types run them all..

Good morning! I'm originally from Memphis and my family is from all over the South. I didn't realize that Tennessee was part union. I really need to sit down and catch up on the history of the era all over again if I'm being surprised by facts like that.

What Garret said was way out of line, especially with mangling his facts. On top of it, I can't imagine where he'd draw a conclusion that romney would do well down there. People do read in Tennessee, they know a liberal democrat when they see one in romney. Tennessee may have gone for that when it was mostly democrats down there and Jim Crow was king, but not today with conservatives.

Garret can kiss my grits for all I care.

I like them with cheese, day old and left in the fridge, cut into thin squares and fried in bacon fat. I miss Sunday mornings when mom would cook...She is a true Southern Belle : )
