Wow -- so to deny the problems in Democrat run cities, they're going to next pull up incomes of ghost towns.

You guys need to realize that it's not who runs the city that makes it good or bad, it's the type of people who live in the city. If you've got large numbers of uneducated blacks and Latinos, there's going to be trouble. You know you don't even need to look at which party is in control.

Cumberland, MD-WV MSA, or Cumberland Metro for short, denotes the Metropolitan Statistical Area of Cumberland, Maryland and the surrounding economic region of Allegany County, Maryland and Mineral County, West Virginia, in the United States.

Cumberland, MD-WV MSA - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Epic fail deflection from the fact that 9 out of 10 of the poorest cities are in the bright red south.

Proof again that GOP policies lead to nothing but poverty.

What do the top ten cities (over 250,000 population) with the highest poverty rate all have in common?

Detroit, MI (1st)hasn't elected a Republican mayor since 1957.

Buffalo , NY (2nd)hasn'telected a Republican mayor since 1962.

Cincinnati , OH (3rd)hasn'telected a Republican mayor since 1971.

With the exception of El Paso and Miami, (and possibly Detroit and Newark) I wouldn't mind living in these cities. Many are suffering from suburban sprawl more than anything else.

Try on last week for size and see how that fits. And you're wrong about being closer to STL than I am.
I am 30 minutes from downtown. If you're calling St. Gen home as I suspect I have you beat by a fair amount.

So, what's the purpose of your posts?

If you tell me your supporting barry I will have to cross you off my friends list.
