Reply #14: I suppose we are out of touch... [View All]

With SUV driving, flag waving, Southern Baptist fundamentalist, homophobic and racist people. But somehow I don't think even the most dedicated pandering would win these persons' votes. In fact, I doubt many of these people even vote for Miller, though they may say nice things about him and use him as an example of an "even" Democrat: "EVEN Zell Miller supports (insert Bush policy)". Democrats who naively think that we can be the party of American flags, Apple Pie, the Pledge of Allegience, young children singing "God Bless America" before school, Rush Limbaugh's dittoheads and old-fashioned morality, are deluding themselves. Let's write these voters off, and tell them the truth: that the Democratic Party has nothing to say to them and nothing to offer them.

P.S. And no, that does not mean write off the south.
