Its not overly complicated

Southern whites have been traditional culture since antebellum era

Southern whites go to church more than anyone... besides maybe Sicilian grannies from the old country

Southern whites are born armed

Southern whites live with highest concentration of blacks in nation...they understand the ramificatiins of black rule or being a minority in black majority and that its not Cosby show

Southern whites are one half real women who love being girls....and mommas

There is nothing in today’s Democrat party that appeals to us anymore

Like Magnus said....Democrat party left us....

But given the GOP being CHICKENSHIT PANDERING FAGGOTS like they have been more often than not since 1866.....we are as discouraged as any decent Yankee

And no matter how much I try to explain this to NeoCon sissies judging us as always from their comfy restored prairie style bungalow in Edina.... they’ll never understand

The dems hitched their wagons to Obammy and his marxist socialist agenda lock stock and barrel.
They own liberalism, they shoved it down our throats as well they could. Now let em reap what they’ve sown.
The pendulum will ultimately swing back the other way and when it does, watch the libs squeel.

I grew up in Bama. In the late 60’s, it was easily 65-percent Democrat. The peak was the late 90’s. Today, around urban areas and union guys....they might total 35-percent of the state’s votes. There is such negative enthusiasm about the President and policies taken over the past six years....that the state is locked down. For at least a decade...it’s strong Republican territory and thriving off the Tea Party. You can’t even get a real race at a county commission job, if you say you are Democrat....that’s how bad this whole thing has become.

Nunn/Carter lost stunningly

From the time these two mental midgets announced their candidacies we were treated to weekly and then daily polling showing that they had huge leads over their opponents.

Suddenly, two weeks from actual election day (we have early voting, ID check and all...!), the reported polls mysteriously flipped and the "closer to real" numbers were reported.

The results were still way beyond what even the last polls were showing...

It was a joy to see them go down in huge defeat...including the alleged "democrat conservative" Barrow in South Georgia.

"How stupid can people be? If government is a tool to lift people out of economic hardship, the only result will be more government and more hardship." The tool is more free stuff. I've been thinking about this. And, have decided that I would be willing to go over to the other side - for a brand new Ranger bass boat with a 200hp Merc and a Ford King Ranch F-250 power stroke to pull it. Oh, almost forgot, and a double-wide for mama, must not forget that 😜!

This was intentional. It was done to make blacks think if they turned out in numbers, despite Obama, they could effect change in Republican trends in Georgia State government and at the Federal level.

The polls and local media reports at all levels in Georgia were lies, frankly.

” Democratic leaders say their party must become more aggressive advocates for the middle class in an effort to energize African-Americans and attract whites.”

There aren’t enough ‘rich’ to support the Gibsmedats, thus they have to screw the middle class. The RATS identity politics policy have boxed them into hole.

The party of leeches has a conundrum.

I concur...it was done to motivate the dem base, but the result was to hyper-motivate the conservatives who may not have completely been onboard with Nathan Deal or David Perdue but would not abide a Nunn or Carter win!

"had a deep distrust of big business"

like big health insurance companies. If you don't buy a policy you'll be fined by the government thanks to democrats.

Awesome!

Could not agree with you more!

I wish more Republicans where culturally Southern. They’re natural conservatives. Not pretend in order to get elected.

But then there’s Linda Graham, Lamar Alexander and John Cornyn...

Yup. If there are still any smart, ambitious democrats left in this state (and those qualifications—smart and democrat—don’t jive at all) you only have a future as a Republican if you’re seeking office anywhere except the black districts. And if you’re not black, do you really think they’d vote for you over the Brotha or Sista?

I’d say it will be at least a generation before Alabama ever votes democrat again. Either they have to brainwash a lot more voters, or change their Communistic bent.

And for people who don’t know, Alabama is only 26% black. That’s not enough, if every single one of them voted, to stem the Republican tide. Roll Tide!

Affirmative action is reason alone for any white guy to vote against Dems; unfortunately, it is a reason many white girls vote for them for the same thing...

One thing I didn’t see mentioned about the “legacy candidates” is how the demographic shift in this country doesn’t help them; too few voters recall the original candidates (in either a positive or negative light) to have an impact.

DeBlasio’s opponent for NYC mayor was a white RINO who tried to harken back to the days of the Dinkins administration (early 90s) to scare people into voting for him; in the postmortem analysis, it was determined that probably half the current voters weren’t living in the city in those dark days (pardon the pun). The whites he was trying to appeal to had already fled NYC, and the message went nowhere...

Maybe the Dem’s could start with dropping the White man is the enemy to start.

-——Unapologetic populism——

the political power was used, squandered in fact, to rob the treasury. The populistees were fleeced and their money pocketed by the elite.

It will take at least ten years to return to the pre Democrat prosperity prior to the Obama, Pelosi, dingy Harry crime spree debacle

It’s really hard to attract voters when it says “We hate Whites and think Blacks should shut up and keep voting Democrat, because we are the Democrats,” over their door.

Democrat party is the party of liars. Through and through. That’s how we got here - enough people see this to tip the scales ... pretty sharply.

They always lie or defend their party’ lies. Always.

The media has always helped them get away with lying. But the combination of new media and the fact that they lied so big, so long, and so frequently about matters so important to individuals has doomed them - at least temporarily.

The longer we can keep the “liars” collar on them, the better it will be for our Nation. I’d also like to put the “liar” collar on the media as they’ve been accomplice to the lies.

And some liars need to start going to jail. IRS information sharers for example.
