So much for all these delusional right-wing talking points about Democrats being the party of welfare queens and handouts.

Wow, isn't that quite an indictment of the opposing party when one party attracts such a large percentage of the educated population?

Yes. It means the GOP is quickly becoming a regional party with a limited geographic appeal in the Deep South. And among born-again evangelicals and crazy Christian fundamentalists.

To quote that buffoon Zell Miller, "A National Party No More." So true, Mr. Miller, so true. Only you happened to be talking about the wrong party.

As long as GOP gains just about a net of 5-8 point from the white votes, they can forget about winning elections. The white vote used to be the path to winning; not anymore.

No surprise here. It is obvious by the content of the posts of the people that still support Bush and his party, that these individuals are not the brightest bulbs in the box.

Yes, I know I am stereotyping Palin Rally members, and it is wrong. But screw it, I want too, and if people find if offensive than send me a DM.

I understood the sarcasm and you made your point brilliantly.

The Republican party has increasingly become to party of askeered people.
