Mississippi/Alabama

[Beet]

The problem with MS is it doesn't follow national demographic trends. 30 years ago blacks were an even bigger percentage of the state population that they are now. Both blacks and whites are fleeing the state like bees from a shaken hive.

Well Howard Dean told me that Mississippi would be a Democratic state soon.

Thanks to the "guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks" vote

I'm glad we have a... er, optimistic chairman for our party.  But I'm not sure how the hell Dean knows anything about "guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks," aside from pro gun-rights, maybe.

Being pro-gun rights might have a large overall impactin preventing the Dems from being the "sissy party".

I find this whole notoin of "sissiness" to be stupid. Its only for guys who are insecure in their masculinity.
