Why doesn't Cincinnati get much national recognition?

Right, like having liberal democrats running a city is a good thing, especially one like Cinci. Cinci is not San Francisco although it is trying to reinvent itself as being liberal. A good example is the patronizing story regarding the soul food restaurant in the Banks in a forced effort to create diversity on the taxpayers' dime.

Cinci lost about 41% of its population and now it is this liberal hotbed, in the city of course. An island of supposedly liberalism in a sea of conservatives. Not saying this is a bad thing whether it's liberal or conservative but there is this need to distinguish the small city from the large metro area.

Sigh. No my point is that Kamms is utterly clueless when he was saying Cincinnati is conservative.

I'm going to follow Motorman and Mimi's lead and stop posting in this thread for reasons they mentioned.

Not clueless, just a realist. I know Hyde Park has liberals and all that but the Cinci metro is conservative and the city, despite its reinvented liberalism, still retains an association with the sea of conservatives around it. This is one reason for Cinci's population decline.

If you'd like to go that route try googling Jim Obergefell ...

If you'd check your reading skills you will notice I did not say Kim Davis is a part of Cincinnati. Ms. Davis is though in a county adjacent to Cincinnati's metro. Point being, there is a heavy conservative presence in and around Cincinnati and its metro area.

Not sure I understand this logic. A city is losing its population because of the Conservative communities that surround it? Can you expound a little on this?

Not sure I understand your question.

I'm not sure anyone understands anything here anymore, really.
I'm closing this thread before it gets really ugly, I think the topic has been covered.
Closed.
