2. Racist has lost its freak out factor stigma

My State Rep told me she heard 2 college kids outside a bar in Madison, WI and they were saying they wouldn't mind a racist President. The word doesn't have the stigma anymore. Kind of like all the shootings are muted and all meld into the next one. Oh, another one of those...you interrupted Dr. Phil for this......

Just today HRC referred to the crackpots who said Sandy Hook was staged and not real. Child actors. The audience gasped. So many don't pay attention. Years ago this same story was in our college paper with college kids promoting it. I about had a heart attack.

I work for the DEMs every day of my life since 2000. It is always boots on the ground. We have just about flipped our city/county offices to all progressive. Under Walker, state offices are another matter. Our state has been burned to the ground under him. Kansas and Wisconsin have been the petri dishes for batshit crazy right wing crap. They have succeeded.
