I have no intention of flaming you. Many of us saw different trends developing than what actually happened. I figured that the voters of PA have been called racist rednecks and the Democrats want to kill the coal industry, surely there will be opposition to this, right? Instead, they proved that no, they’re not bothered by insults and their livelihood being destroyed. It’s not your fault.
I’m out west in Utah, but I grew up in southeastern PA back in the days when the Philly suburbs were still reliably Republican. It seems like we were fighting against a rather fierce “perfect storm” of mediascum propaganda, Bush-fatigue, economic mess, Democrat perfidy and fraud, and several other factors.
I have to wonder how many PA voters were even aware of Obama/Biden hostility to the survival of the coal industry, Murtha disparagement of PA voters as racists and rednecks, Obama/Biden extreme left views, etc.
I doubt that the mediascum let that info get through very widely, and probably only people on sites like FR even had much awareness of stuff like that.
