For southern white males they must feel alienated for their GOP choices
-Mccain = immigration reform
-Romney = Mormon

the whitest swaths of the south simply loved mccain's lax immigration policy in 2008, the south simply can not harbor more racism than other parts of the nation.

thus spake devryUprep.

Don Yelton, a GOP precinct chair in Buncombe County, North Carolina, is resigning following comments about voter ID laws and “lazy blacks” on “The Daily Show”–but the media frenzy about the remarks is continuing. In an interview this week with “The Daily Show” correspondent Aasif Mandvi, Yelton said that new voting restrictions imposed in North Carolina in the wake of the Supreme Court striking down a key portion of the Voting Rights Act were going to hurt democrats. “The law is going to kick the Democrats in the butt,” he said. He added that “if it hurts a bunch of lazy blacks that want the government to give them everything, so be it.” He also suggested that it was okay if the law hurts whites and “lazy” college students. http://blogs.wsj.com/speakeasy/2013/10/26/gops-don-yelton-resigns-after-lazy-blacks-remark-on-daily-show/
Meanwhile, KKK Grand Cyclops Robert Byrd retires as Democratic Senator after being re-elected over three decades.

The Republicans. The Democrats fought the Civil Rights Act tooth and nail. You really think no one is going to recognize your blatant lie?
Sir with all due respect you do know that both parties switched sides EON'S ago right. Besides we cant even call Republicans that name anymore. Reagan was a Republican. These guys are CON'S and are acting just like con's.

Frankly, your claim that the parties switched sides is just retarded. George Wallace never switched sides, nor did Robert Byrd. Your flimsy excuse making for the past racism of your party is delusional. And the claim Obama beat out Kerry is misdirection, because he couldn't beat out Clinton. She was ahead in the primary when they stopped counting the votes and declared the preselected candidate the nominee.

Sen. Robert Byrd had long since repented, of
course. The West Virginian, who died
Monday at 92
, deeply
regretted his segregationist past, which included a year as a member of
the Ku Klux Klan and at least several more years as a Klan sympathizer. He
eventually became a passionate advocate for civil rights, and he was one of the
most vocal supporters of legislation making the birthday of the Rev. Martin
Luther King Jr. a national holiday.

So he "repented" when it became politically expedient. Yeah, that wipes all those cross-burnings and lynchings off the books.

Strong correlation between some southern states and wither voting for white people, or not voting for black people. Take your pick.
Where does it say anything about the race of those being voted for? You're pretending the map supports some preconceived notion you have when it clearly doesn't.

If you dont mind me asking how stoned are you?
1. Your going to use 2 out of how many?? Give me a break.
2. I didnt claim shit about Clinton or Kerry.
3. This is where you have your ass handed to you: Since the division of the Republican Party in the election of 1912, it has consistently positioned itself to the left of the Republican Party in economic issues and libertarian on social matters. The economically philosophy of Franklin D. Roosevelt, which has strongly influenced American liberalism, has shaped much of the party's economic agenda since 1932. Roosevelt's New Deal coalition usually controlled the national government until the 1970s. http://www.xtimeline.com/timeline/History-of-American-Democratic-Party

Quite stoned. What's your excuse? 1. I believe two was enough. It was two more than you provided. 2. My mistake, seemed to have blurred you with someone else. 3. Your cut and paste is quite comical. "Since......the Republican Party ............ has consistently positioned itself to the left of the Republican Party". Didn't even make sense. Blah, blah, blah. Regurgitating some ones opinion as if that somehow becomes fact.
