we try to "reach" the "red staters", but they push US away. We TRY to convince them that they are voting against their best interests, but they push US away. They believe what they believe because of a reverse-elitist mind set.
Beer tents and swap meets, in my opinion, will appear as pandering, and if it's one thing they hate more than "liberal elitists" it's "pandering liberal elitists".
I know we shouldn't give up on them, but I'm ALREADY sick of bending over backward trying to sway them. Sooner or later they have to take the responsibility THEMSELVES to research what is REALLY going on in this country. They have to realize that they're being lied to and used, but they have to discover that for themselves, and they're not going to do it by watching FOX News.
THEY have to take responsibility for catching up to US. If they're too ignorant or distrustful, screw 'em. They'll find out the hard way that we're the party that is looking out for them.
That's just my opinion. You're as entitled to yours as I am mine. No disrespect meant, we're all in this together. ;)
