Democratic Urban Revolt Spreading to Chicago?
The American Interest ^ | 05-26-2014 | Walter Russell Mead & Staff

"This poses questions for the Democratic party nationally. If highly-visible urban Democratic centers are moving sharply to the left while the rest of the country looks on in displeasure, it will be harder for national leaders to straddle the divide between left urban grassroots and the suburban and centrist voters (not to mention the Wall Street money) needed to prevail in national contests."


TOPICS: Government; Miscellaneous; News/Current Events

...highly-visible urban Democratic centers are moving sharply to the left...

In other words, the parasites are demanding more 0bamaStuff.

The presstitutes must have to struggle to keep coming up with euphemisms like that.

It's more analogous to behaving like rabid animals. There's really a very limited number of options in dealing with them.

Urban votes are done by ballot stuffing so it is irrelevant

To: ComputerGuy; All
well? ..where else, do they relocate? ..Detroit, East St. Louis, NOL,
Chicago, Newark, LA, NYC or Da Capitol; they're already hell-holes.
they're a economic/political/social plague, led by race hustlers/pimps.

When Urban Democrat voters can vote three or more times, then we are screwed.
Voter ID now....not later...

From 150 miles away, I could never understand Chicago.

Expensive to live
Lousy weather
Really high taxes
Crowded and hard to get around

Makes no sense to me......

The correct term for a city with democrats is a "behavioral sink."
