New Republic gets one thing right:
Hillary will NEVER win in the South.

and ashamed of the working class. And thats when Democrats lost the South Actually that IS true.
The Bitter Clingers statement being the primary example of effete elite condescension towards the Common people of the South.
Why support people who spit on you?

Sorry Hillary. We are past the point where you can simply go back to calling yourself Mrs. Bill Clinton to get votes in the South.

Hillary will never win in the South.
But Liz Warren just may. They don’t like New York bankers down there any better today than they did when they elected Andrew Jackson.
To: Seizethecarp
The Clintons didn’t help Pryor or Landreau. Their influence in the South is not as great as they think. And, Hillary wasn’t that popular when BJ was governor.
Hillary’s pandering ‘no ways tard’ might work with some groups, but it also alienates other groups.

This year it appeared the Clintons were totally toxic on the campaign trail.
I’m not sure if any of their endorsements outside deep blue states even came close to winning.
There are rumors Chels is begging them to stay home when she starts her quest for elected office.

Don’t bet the farm on that! The line has been drawn by the progressives and we’re never crossing it.

For the Democrats, of course they and Hillary can win in the South. Just like one of Mary Landrieu’s supporters urged, “Vote early, vote often!”

Hillarys pandering no ways tard might work with some groups, but it also alienates other groups. That made my skin crawl just remembering that. That, and Kerry's 'where kin ah git me a huntin' license' schtick.
Both reek of condescension and contempt.

NO, Democrats Cannot win NC, VA maybe, but definitely NOT NC..
The elites that don’t live here don’t GET to decide what happens.
Leave my state alone, blubberliberas.

Demographics. Only a matter of time.
A real populist can wreck havoc on both parties, probably splitting the R vote.
That is a strategy I'm sure the Dems could roll out. It would work because the GOP sure has neglected that part of the citizenry.

Their strategy has been simple from the beginning: lie their asses off and NEVER admit that the ultimate goal is a totalitarian socialist government.

That article never got to the point - stating how the Democrats can win the South.
It sort of hinted at it, and those hints point to a Democratic Party plan for... wait for it... class warfare and socialist redistribution schemes.
Wow. That's new.

Far be it from me to makes opinions about a person’s appearance - but her husband REALLY needs to do something about those eyebrows.
Yeeesh!
