Ahhhh, the original question was why folks keep votin' for Repubs...

Simple, money!!!

The candiate with the ost money wins 9 out of 10 elections...

And why do the Repubs have so much money???"

Simple, Part B, thuggery!!! Yeah, the Repubs have a very sopshisticated sytem of collecting "protection money"... They have "pioneers" and "rangers" who go out with clubs and "bundle" masses of cash, musch like the mob used to do when it wouldf hit the mom-'n'pop shops for "protection money"... Throw in the massive tax cuts to the super rich and its not wonder thay have unlimited access to cash... And as much as they want... Hey, a hundred million isd chump cahnge to the pharmacudical industry... They spikll that much every day...They are drowning in cash...

So the Repubs have seized power and now they are seizing the bootie that goes along with it...

Hey, the Dems did it when they had their cahn ce so I'm not defending the Dems here...

Just a screwed up democracy, IMO...

Now back to the red states... Yeah, I've lived most of my life in red states so I understand a little about folks who live in them... It don't take to much to get 'um riled up... Most are stil;l p.o'd about the Civil War so all a Repub has to do is say "Do you want Washington, D.C. in yer pocket" and irregardless of the validity of that statement, there's 13 states you can purdy much count on every four years....

And the beat goes on...

But, fir me, I'm lovin' the butt whup the Dems are gfettin'... Maybe they will eventually get tired of it and stand up and fight f9or what is right... But prolly not...

Either way, the US on a collision course with itself...
