Because back then it was suburbanites who were racists and unreachable by the Democratic message, whereas now it's rurals. Smiley

I think more accurately, partisans change who they demonize as subhuman garbage and who they build up as enlightened and smart based on who is willing to lend them an electoral hand at the moment. Smiley
