11. Even in a liberal state like Massachusetts

the GOP at its fundamental base is fueled by racism, sexism and hatred.


If people didn't hate based on natural born differences, would the American GOP even exist as a political party?



There was a poll out looking at white working class voters. In the South, Romney had a 40 point edge. Hmm... I wonder why? A generation ago the Democrats became a more inclusive party. And both white and black Democrats have paid for it in the south ever since.

Of course those of us who live outside the south know that evoking this type of response among voters doesn't just work in the old confederacy. The "southern strategy" works in a lot of places. Including Boston.

The good news is this is proof that Brown believes he is behind. He is turning the last page of the GOP playbook. This reeks of desperation.

Elizabeth Warren IS GOING TO BE THE NEXT SENATOR from Massachusetts.
