Income Desparity And Poverty Greatest In The South

Note to the tc (topic creator). Obama already tried this theme. It didn't work.

Carry on.

Really? Didn't work? Who is President? And who will be re-elected in 2012?

RealClearPolitics - 2012 Election Maps - Battle for White House

The NYTimes disagrees with your assessment.

Despite improving job growth and an extended Republican primary fight dividing his would-be opponents, President Obama is heading into the general election season on treacherous political ground, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll.

Oh it's going to be a big piss, vinegar and bloody match up in the mud come 2012. Lots of money being spent this time around.

I still think Obama will win it.

But it won't be a cakewalk.
 
It is a fascinating dilemma, dirt poor but the fantasy sustains you? Anyone see 'Game Change?' Palin wanted so badly to stir up the pot of hatred and bigotry but McCain then wouldn't have it. For many it is their foes rather than their sense that guides them. And politicians can always point back to those foes to deflect real reasons away into a place where discussion ends.

If by that, you mean that we Southerners clearly understand that unions, liberals, and democrats are NOT our friends, you're right. Don't like that? Then stay up North (or get out of the South) and leave us the hell alone!

:clap2:

Yea, there are Yankees and Damn Yankees. Yankees live up North and come to visit, Damn Yankees come to stay. After they get here, they want to change everything to fit their way of life. I'm proud to say there are a lot of strong willed Southern folks that stand their ground on some things.

If you don't like the South, just keep your butt up where things are the way you like them, we're doing just fine without you.
Well then I'm just a Yankee. Nice to see in the winter. Even maybe to visit for a month or two... but it's too damn hot for me the other 10 months of the year.

Then again, I've stated many times I'd move to Cleveland or Buffalo for the weather first.

Hence the proliferation of gated communities in the South.

They want to keep it that way. Anything else would be (gasp) "socialism".

Then maybe you should try to argue why we should be mad that other people earn more than us. Heaven forbid you actually try to persuade people to agree with you or present an actual argument for why your position is correct.
 
You folks in the south should be thankful for us Yankees moving in and spreading the wealth and improving your economies and creating jobs and all that.

I bet more of them would be happier if you took your cash and went away rather than screw up their lives with your desire to remake the south in your image. I feel that way when rich dickheads from Illinois move north to screw up WI and make it into Chicago North.

Just sayin'.
 
I still havent heard a persuasive argument why I should be angry because other people have more money than me, even if it is alot more money.
