Laura Ingraham Points to Southern Strategy For Reforming GOP
Conservative radio host Laura Ingraham on Sunday pointed to the roots of Southern strategy of the late 1960s which appealed to racism in the South as an example of how the Republican Party should reform itself after President Barack Obama won re-election.
If the reaction to the election is lets dig into our core principles and try to remake them, I think the GOP will lose even more seats in 2014, Ingraham told Fox News host Chris Wallace. If it becomes a bidding war with Republicans in either this group or that group whether its Latinos or women were going to give you more stuff or were going to do amnesty plus its not going to work.

now you can have all the remaining Blue Dog Democrats to boot and still remain a minority in our nation.

what used to be minority but is nearing the majority vote, and their children and families yet to come, while yours are going the way of the funeral home. Millenials, I think they call them.
