Tell me again why the North shouldn's secede!!??
Hayley effffing Barbour!!!???? Zell Miller!!??? and the soon to be Senator Katherine Harris. We really are back in the 1950's aren't we? I for one am tired of hearing about how we need to run conservative Democrats in the South. You can't out KKKonservative the KKK!!!

Screw the South. If we need to run a candidate like Hayley effing Barbour to win a southern state, what is the point?

Should have let Sherman and Grant finish the job.

Sorry about the rant, but we are about to be the Republican Party of the 1940's (out of power for 50 - 60 years). Only difference is that these f*#@ers will lock us up and throw away the key. Democracy is dead.

Who said that a little revolution is necessary every now and then? It is definitely "now and then".

1. The scary thing is the Southern states are only getting more and more....
powerful with the influx of people from the NE. Let's hope they bring their voting habits with them.

8. The right wing 'burbs of Atlanta are full of Yankees.
These are the people who sent Gingrich and Barr, both northern transplants, to Congress.

Not everyone in the northeast is a liberal, and an awful lot of the transplants we get here are reactionaries.

3. Locking...
2. The subject line of a discussion thread and the entire text of the message which starts the thread may not include profanity, excessive capitalization, or excessive punctuation. Inflammatory rhetoric should also be avoided.

5. you speak my truth
I've been saying for a while that the Northeast should secede. We are so different from the rest of the country in our attitudes, etc., and the media never seems to see us as "typical" Americans.

7. That would be a Southerner, Thomas Jefferson, Virginian.
Yeah, you guys just blast us off the face of the earth. Degrade and demean us. See how well the Dems do when they lose their last vestige of Southern support.
