Joy Behar: Dems Lost Senate Because of Gerrymandering

Wednesday on ABC’s “The View,” co-host Joy Behar mistakenly thought Senate seats could be gerrymandered.

[T-Bird45]

Breitbart is being very generous in characterizing Behar’s ignorance as “mistakenly”, IMO. Behar is a classic “post turtle” — “You know she didn’t get up there by herself, she doesn’t belong up there, and she doesn’t know what to do while she’s up there, and you just wonder what kind of dumb ass put her up there to begin with”.

Well...with enough Jack Daniels, one might believe this. If we could just redraw state lines and move part of California into Arizona, and carve a bit off NY to insert into Florida....things would be corrected by Behar-gerrymandering.

[House Atreides]

Joy’s right. When they gerrymandered southern Alabama into Florida and called it the Florida panhandle they helped Florida Republicans at the state level. ;-)

For Democrats, brains are a drawback. Empty heads rise to the top.

A room temperature IQ will get you on “The View”.

Lol.

Dumb as a box of rocks.

[neverevergiveup]

Idiot.

The witless wonder opens her very large mouth and out comes ratings. Her fans love her contempt for reality. The dumber she gets the more they love her.

[Ann Archy]

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! What STUPID B^TCH! This is the ONLY FUNNY THING she has ever said!!

[Flick Lives]

“Gerrymandering! Squawk. Tweet. Pretty bird! Nazi. Nazi! Tweet. Pretty bird.”

[A strike]

HILARIOUS, but not surprising.

[Don@VB]

She probably thinks that’s why Hillary lost too.

[Political Junkie Too]

She's right in one sense: The Missouri Compromise set the 36°30′ parallel as the north-south boundary for slavery in 1820. Look at the borders of North and South Carolina, Kentucky and Tennessee, Missouri and Arkansas.

The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 extended the 36°30′ parallel to the borders of Kansas and Oklahoma, and eventually Colorado and New Mexico, Utah and Arizona.

While not technically gerrymandering, the shapes of many states were aligned around the issue of slavery, and those shapes still today influence the election of Senators.

Stalinists lie. Always

The Senate is not based on “districts”.

[a fool in paradise]

The Left is lying to the LIVs (Low Information Voters).

When the polling came out that more Democrats may be voting than Republicans, the talking point came out that it was like the electoral college and “unfair”. I’ve since seen an idiotorial posted that the people in rural America are forcing their agenda on the majority.

waaaaaaaa

A room temp IQ is required to view “The Shrew”.

Great laugh to start the day.

Haven’t ever viewed the “View”. Sounds like it could be rather amusing, though.

[Arm_Bears]

Did the gerrymandering occur in all 57 states?
