The stupid Damnyankee managed to insult and alienate millions of potential voters with his big Massachusetts mouth!

Romney and Obama both seem to believe that intelligent life ceases to exist beyond the city limits.

You do know that there is a large black population in the South, near 40% in one southern state. No matter what happens they will be voting 90%+ Obama. Throw in the rest of the dems and liberal minded in the cities and Mitt Romney will have to spend plenty of time eating grits and fried catfish and may still lose.

After the carpet bombing Axelrod and the super pacs will do telling everyone about Romney’s Massachusetts record of liberal socialist accomplishment, Romney will be lucky if he wins a southern state.

With Romney as the nominee, all I see is the losing end of a landslide, because without the South, the GOP can’t win. Knowing this, you’d think they’d be a bit more mindful of southern sensibilities and there would be less condescending talk from the GOP-E.

Romney is buying this election (he knocked Newt out after SC by spending an incredible $17 mil++ in lying negative ads) and we in the South literally loathe him.

He will NOT carry the South because no one will vote! His triangulation will backfire.

The South (and many patriots) would rather go to the mattresses against Obama than place their faith in Romney to save the country.

He may have money...but he's a gutless mofo!

I know Karl Rove and his thinking.

It is this: “Obama needs to be defeated. Romney is the one to take him out. He is the only one that can beat Hussein.
Marginalize the other candidates, contribute to my PAC..and done.”

I have had numerous in person convos with him and this is about it.

Agree Rooster. And it’s good to know that most in the patriotic South aren’t being bamboozled by this loathsome Imposter from Massachusetts.

BTW, just so the bigotry tag doesn’t stick...I would ask the same question of a Rabbi, an Imam, a Catholic Bishop, Franklin Graham, Richard Land, or any other church leader...”exactly, I MEAN EXACTLY, what is your faith, what does it mean, and where PRECISELY do your loyalties lie?”

Do you know where this picture was taken, or who the other people in the picture are besides Reid?

May God guide our course.

I got it. Sorry for the query, I thought it would be harder to find : / Leavitt is the one who looked so familiar, and now I know why!

Thank you for the very interesting picture.

May God give us strength.

It might take something like losing the South to make the GOP-E and the lemmings that follow their direction learn they should never nominate a New England liberal again. That might be preferable to some than seeing him be elected and being booted out in 4 years like Bush Sr. was in favor of a new, emboldened secular-socialist majority under the Democrat banner.
