1. I would just like to point out this isn't Mississippi, Alabama or Kentucky.

This is proof that terrible attitudes exist everywhere.

16. I am not even from the south

but I get damn tired of people assuming that racism is just a southern thing. I remember reading a comment by a guy (here at DU during 2008) saying that racism didn't exist in California and existed only a little in other states. Soooo not true.

2. Did someone pass this onto Rachel Maddow?

This is as bad as the video tape of Brown's staffers war whooping and doing the tomahawk chop.

All I can say is that I'm surprised that Brown and the Rethugs who advocate for him are no longer hiding their racist and misogynist attitudes to the public. It's as if they want to lose this election.

.. they don't just look like complete assholes, they are, in fact, complete assholes.

(My apologies to any complete assholes that might be offended by having them grouped in your ranks.)

5. If that's an official campaign sign, then it's going to hurt

Brown. Even if it's not, it's going to hurt him. I'm betting that it's an independently produced sign, though. Not even the Brown campaign could be so stupid...or could it?

13. The campaign Scott Brown is running is literally the craziest one I have ever seen.

Not just this sign, but his comments at the debate, and his staffers war whooping and doing "tomahawk chops"!

If this sign was a picture from 1922, I'd say "WOW, look how back wards and ignorant people used to be! And look how brazenly they went about showing it!"

It's hard to believe this is actually happening NOW. In 2012.

It's like a bad JOKE! It's SOOOOOOOOOOOOO insane.

How is this guy not down by 40 points?

I know they have been doing coverage of it either Ed's show, Rachel, or the guy that comes on afterwards. Anyway to make it make the news cycle tonight?
