This group makes up the core of the Democratic voting block. They believe they’ve been wrong or disadvantaged, or even being told to believe so. They’re also being told that the Democrats that (Republicans and conservatives) are out to wrong them and disadvantage them even further.
These are the things commonly referred to as “playing the race/age/gender/class card.” This is used VERY often by liberals and it is why we hear a lot of it. This group of people- the victims- falls for it very easily. As a result, they become slaves of the liberal mindset.
They also use fear mongering to keep their pawns in line.
Democrats scare African Americans into believing that Republicans are “holding them down”.
Democrats scare middle class into thinking Republicans are “hurting the middle class.
Democrats scare women into thinking Republicans are “against their rights.”
Democrats also frequently try to scare Senior Citizens into thinking Republicans want to “destroy Social Security.”
Look at the key words: accusations; against,holding down, hurting, destroying.
We have seen it used through out the election and now see it used with the fiscal cliff "talks". And as a result, this entire second group is formed- the “victims” of the Democratic Playing Card Deck.

The BS machines are working overtime! Are they unionized?
Plenty of liberals (like me) don't consider themselves victims, and are solidly middle class. I work full time, own a home, have a family, etc. -- I just happen to believe that humans are supposed to be kind and compassionate. I think you'd see something similar with many of the white people who voted for Obama, even though I'm an independent.
The thing I have enjoyed most since the election is repeated demonstrations (like this OP) that the American right wing is so willfully intent on not learning a single useful lesson from their drubbing that there should be no fears of them turning it around any time soon.
Obama supporters believe the way they do, because of the liberal spin and fear mongering they hear from Democratic, liberal leaders and left wing media outlets. It is drilled into their heads by left wing media news.
They then vote for Democrats, mostly out of fear and loathing of the other side. They call conservatives “bigots” and “racists” repeating the lies that the liberal left.
The “Victims of the Democratic Playing Card Deck” are fearful, angry, resentful, and therefore has a closed mind towards reality or any other person’s opinions if they differ from their own.
