Democrats in the south (except urban centers like atlanta and such) are not of the same type of democrats in say Massachusetts - dems up in the north east dont have to worry about their job security (for the most part), so they can be more liberal, and thus, liked more by the majority of people at DU. While all at DU want more dems in office, the types of dems that can win in the south are, for the most part, not as liberal as those desired by most at DU. Perhaps that's why you hear some of those comments. Of course, some people are just misinformed, but us sane northerners are up here trying to make a difference!
