lol. racist white trash? still playing the race card this far after the election? both parties are the exact same. you will learn that one day. political parties aren't racist, people are.
right people are but when your party use racist strategies it makes your party racist. just like the southern conservative democrats before LBJ who rejected some of his policies with civil rghts
I am neither uneducated, Black or trash. I am also a Democrat the supported and voted for President elect Obama. I think the Republicans pander to the most frightened and uninformed of the white voter population because there just are not enough Ivy League highly educated well established wealthy aristocrats to carry an election.
true they've been pandering to southerners since the late 60's using the southern strategy..

In 1964 those old boys found a new home with the more congenial GOP, and have stayed there comfortably ever since - see this "Changing Political Map" with the slider - through the years.
did you honestly just post something from the BBC as though that is a viable news source?

I didn't know there was such thing as an independent party.

Let me, once again, point out the obvious. Those who attended the McCain/Palin rallies were amazingly similar in their physical characteristics. Very, very little diversity. That can't be denied and signifies a HUGE problem for the Republicans that they need to find a way to rectify if they are going to win elections. That's the big picture.
Knowing that they have painted themselves into a corner, they are reaching out to the extreme evangelicals and radical gun-toting uneducated types ( I think "white trash" is a racial term) in a desperate attempt to expand their base and gain some traction again. That is the point the article made, and a very valid one, IMO.
Of course, there are many well educated voters who will always vote Republican and did so, but the message from the right is what has changed. Drill, Baby, Drill, pit bull in lipstick, Joe the plumber, Tito the builder, Joe six-pack, "pro-America" rural areas, and "the fundamentals of our economy are strong" themes were obviously not put forth to entice the more enlightened members of our society.
I agree with palin in regards to Pork and earmarks.
Who is hurting our autistic children?
AMA?
CDC?
They have both finally admitted that yes some children are harmed by imunizations.....
My child is one of them.
I know your pain. My perfect child is now damaged because of immunizations.
Would you mind please posting your child's story in the Special Needs forum? I am very concerned about the whole vaccine-autism possible link,as I have a toddler w/ Cerebral Palsy,who is behind on his immunizations. The last time he got shots,he was a VERY sick little guy for 3 DAYS!!
