know that it's code.

Lee Atwater explained it back in the 1980s and it's still operational in the repub party.


"You start out in 1954 by saying, "N*****r, N*****r, N*****r." By 1968 you can't say "N*****r"—that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states' rights and all that stuff. You're getting so abstract now [that] you're talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you're talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites."

Mitt, by engaging in that coded word, revealed that he's hit the panic button.

And the "birtherism" is coming back with a vengeance. That's what Sarah Palin meant when she said "light our hair on fire".

Romney, having basically run out of things to run on, will go extremely dirty, bigoted and racist. Oh, he'll do the same "tapdance" that McCain tried to do, but failed.. Let "others" and "surrogates" delve into the mud. But it will stick to Romney.

And that's only when he's not STEALING President Obama's positions, which he's now shown a propensity to do.

Count on it.
 
LOL!

I swear...I honestly think that Democrats need the IDEA of the "Southern Strategy," FAR more than the GOP EVER actually needed it.

In fact, I contend that it is the "DNC Southern Strategy," to demean and stereotype an entire region of the country who does not share their views.

For some reason, Democrats are incapable of considering OTHER issues, such as small government, the second amendment, low taxation, and individual responsibility, when discussing the South.

Far easier to simply label an entire region as "Racist...."

So, Lee Atwater didnt say that?
 
Is it okay to call him "communist" based on his constant rhetoric denigrating individual effort and praising the collective? Or is that "racist" too?
 
Nah...we need to stick to the PROPER terms when discussing His Holiness:

--"Dalai-Bama, Glorious Leader, His Highness, Lord and Master..."
 
Maybe Romney saw this:

What is even funnier is seeing Jeb come out and say, "Obama does not know how to run the economy!"That has to be the best one yet from a guy whose Brother not only destroyed the economy, losing millions of jobs, but put us so far in debt it will take forever to get us out.

Then to top it all of here comes Cheney, one of the most despised men in the US, telling Congress what they need to do on the Military.

These guys would be a hoot,if they were not so dangerous.
 
#1. Atwater is DEAD.
#2. Atwater also stated that the "REAGAN" Southern Strategy would focus on the issues that I mentioned above (Which, you and yours consistently IGNORE. Hell, I have YET to see a Liberal even ACKNOWLEDGE them...unless it is as they insult the Chrisitan Faith...)
#3. Atwater was one Political Operative. Should we discuss Obama's Communist allies, and supporters?
#4. Did I mention that Atwater is dead???


Actually, I see the Dim's "Southern Strategy" as a great help for the GOP: As long as you guys consistently ignore the issues that are IMPORTANT to the typical Southerner, choosing, instead, to simply call them "RACISTS" as you derride their faith, culture, and belief system...well, suprise, suprise...not many are going to listen to anything else you have to say.....even if they could be won over to the argument....
 
in 2005, Ken Mehlman of the RNC formally apologized to the NAACP for the repub party's use of the (Lee Atwater) Southern strategy.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/07/13/AR2005071302342.html

when Michael Steele was head of the RNC, he, too, admitted that the repub party had used the southern strategy.

unfortunately, the GOP continues to use the southern strategy....with birtherism, calling our president "foreign" and "unAmerican."
 
I live here in the south, I have seen the southern strategy at work, I have seen racism in my state, I have watched as southern democrats have switched parties to republican over the last 40 years, responding to code words and bigotry.

Atwater and Mehlman admitted the Southern Strategy was real and used by Reagan, HW Bush, Repubs.....and apologized for it.

Why...if there was "nothing wrong" with it, Doc???
