Laura Ingraham Points to Southern Strategy For Reforming GOP

More: http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/11/11/ingraham-points-to-southern-strategy-for-reforming-republican-party/

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 let’s 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 it’s Latinos or women — we’re going to give you more stuff or we’re going to do amnesty plus… it’s not going to work.”

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.

Ye have blasphemed against thou Repug party, the GOP (Greedy Old Pigs). They must Double Down on the Southern Strategy, for yea, it worketh! Keep up the racism and hypocrisy, the double standards, keep glossing over child-molesting priests and fellow Repigs!

FOR I HAVE SPOKEN.

Vengeance,

GOD (R-Nevah-nevah)
