To be fair, FZ’s post identified that the ‘supposedly “Republican” counties surrounding Philly’ are the ‘idiots’. When a purportedly R area commonly supports the D candidate, then the term “idiots” may be appropriate.
From the poll;
“regional support shows Romney has managed to run up big margins in Western Pa. with conservative Democrats and at the same time make significant inroads in the socially-moderate, vote-rich Philadelphia suburbs where Romney now leads 48-46. Winning the suburban Philadelphia collar counties would be an historic accomplishment since no Republican presidential nominee has carried these counties in decades”
Talking to you? No. Probably your neighbors, though.
Attacking Pennsylvanians? Hardly, since I've lived in Pennsylvania all my life. My children are fifth-generation Penn Staters. I've lived almost everywhere in PA except Erie. Born in York, raised in Pittsburgh and Harrisburg, and lived in Chester, on City Line Avenue (in Philly), South Philly when Rizzo was mayor, and also Phoenixville, and Wilkes-Barre. My mother's family was in Cumberland County PA before there was a United States of America.
So please spare me the indignation; if you don't acknowledge that a majority of our neighbors are idiots, either you haven't lived in the Commonwealth as long as I have, or you aren't paying attention. The five counties around Philly are the reasons we've been losing national elections in PA. It's easy to blame fraud, but it isn't true.
