Rachel just kicked Tweety in the ass! Women are NOT a monolith. And neither are blacks!!

Though she didn't call him by name, Rachel took on the "pundits" who assert that O'Donnell will win because women will push her over the top.

Rachel gave specific facts about past voting behavior, citing the fact that the McCain-Palin ticket only garnered 43% of women, compared to the 48% for Bush in 2004. Choosing Palin did very little to bring Hillary voters to the fold.

The same is true for black American voters. The reason why there never was a Senator Michael Steele, never was a President Jesse Jackson, or a President Al Sharpton...and so on...is because black Americans actually DO care about issues. Women actually DO care about the issues and public policies that concern THEM.

To Tweety and the rest of the so-called "punditry": You can kiss my black AND female ass!!! :)

Steve Cohen Wins Primary In Landslide
Eric Kleefeld | August 5, 2010, 9:54PM57


Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) and TN-09 primary challenger Willie Herenton.

Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) has been easily renominated in his Democratic primary tonight, beating back former Memphis Mayor Willie Herenton's effort to make race an issue against the white progressive Congressman from a majority-black district.

With 59% of precincts reporting, Cohen leads by a whopping 79%-20%. This result so far seems identical to last cycle's Dem primary, in which the incumbent Cohen faced a challenge that not only centered around race, but also featured seemingly anti-Semitic attacks against him.

As we'd noted earlier, Herenton had focused his campaign around race, arguing that Tennessee's currently all-white Congressional delegation should have a black member from this majority African-American district. He even made such statements as telling the voters to "come off that Cohen plantation and get on the Herenton freedom train."

But it clearly did not work, as Cohen was supported by President Obama, the Congressional Black Caucus -- and the Democratic primary voters of the district, too.

6. The media have been myopic

for some time.

Tweety and his ilk have started to believe their own bullshit, rendering them completely out of touch with Americans.

Remember, in Media Land, humans have been reduced to "laborer" or "consumer."

"Consumers" are not thinking, rational beings. They are so "brand-receptive" they can be very easily manipulated based on race, gender and Jesus.

Holding this one-dimensional view of the American voter makes Tweety feel very savvy and special.
