Cnn reporter goes to most Obama unfriendly town in U.S. Now........

[busterbrown]

Someone please tell me what was the point of this story.
To show just how ugly and stupid the people of this town are?
The reporter acted as frightened as the one person who voted for
Obama at the basketball game. What an Idiot!!!! Nice Job CNN!!!!

1. He got only five votes in the county

But that was good enough for 3.4%. There were 144 votes in the whole county.

Romney failed to get a single vote in 59 districts in Philly. You'll never see a story there though, even though those voters are much more significant in number and have far more rational reasons for their choice.

[lumpy]

24. Thanks... needed that

[boingboinh]

2. To watch them soak in their Misery

Something about seeing their misery seems intriguing to watch especially if its a place that is so deep, deep red.
So i actually didn't mind it. Muhahaha..

[RandySF]

3. Nothing shocking here.

They were obviously off their rockers about the birther crap, etc., but they didn't look likr they were frothing at the mouth ready to secede either.

[bluestateguy]

4. Un-American rednecks

Badmouthing the president when we have troops in the field.

In the field!!

Disgusting.

[melody]

18. Bill Clinton is an American redneck

Redneck is a racial slur describing Anglo-Scots-Irish Americans from the US south.

[aaaaaa5a]

5. That's the FOX news demographic. nt

[Cali_Democrat]

6. LOL @ the toothless redneck who said he's a muslim

typical white trash piece of shit you'll find in those parts of the country.

[YayArea]

7. Some interesting facts about King County

2000 Population - 356
2010 Population - 286 (-70)

[CanonRay]

10. 2020 population: 205

2030 population 117

Goodbye and good riddance.

[Cha]

8. How's cnn doing in the ratings game?

still dead last?

[Tutonic]

9. Ted Turner must be rolling.

He's not legally dead yet, but when he finally is...

[John2]

11. So

CNN went to a county that was over 94 percent white in the state of Texas. CNN does not believe unlikely voters matter. They don't vote. They went where they could find the most likely voters. Now if they went to where they could find some unlikely voters, it would probably favor President Obama and dislike Romney. Guess what, President Obama won the election. I guess CNN better do some soul searching like the GOP. They are out of step with America. Their likely voter models includes rightwing extremists.

[RomneyLies]

12. Birthers and morons and idiots

Oh my.

[narnian60]

19. Hahaha!

[fugop]

13. Shine the light on these covkroaches!

Show them for what they are. Turn off America from Republicans even more.

[lumpy]

25. More like blockheads, stopped thinking in kindergarten.

Ignorance is a destuctive thing.

[Sunlei]

14. Bad reporting and bad questions

The President has a huge rural program, CNN should have asked about that
here's the link-

[scheming daemons]

17. He's been re-elected. He just has to do the right things now, and not worry about a perceived

"rural problem" anymore.

[busterbrown]

20. Yea, but I think he's lying......about just everything.........what particularly?...just everything

[AlinPA]

15. CNN is close to being Fox 'news' II.

[sammytko]

16. We used to drive through that part of the stae on our way back to Altus AFB OK

There are some interesting things out there if you look for them.

Several old forts from the buffalo soldier days. There is one that is popular with astronomers from all over because the nights are so clear.

We used to stop at the little towns to check them out. Lots of vintage shops with great prices.

We aren't white and the people were always nice to us. Of course they might just be polite.

Rick Perry's hometown is just down the road from here.

But I'd never want to live in the area. Too desolate.

[Generic Brad]

21. Strangely enough, it is also the stupidest town in America

What a conglomeration of racist, petty, moronic people. They should be ashamed of how they presented themselves.

[EmeraldCityGrl]

22. CNN needs to be called out so thanks for posting.

The purpose of this video is an affirmation of their racist, ignorant "opinion."
It's disguised as a sort of pulse of the nation bullshit piece.

I have sent so many complaints to CNN this election season I'm sure they
block my emails. They are desperate for ratings and so will stoop to airing junk
journalism. Just pathetic.

[Rstrstx]

23. Should have gone to Kenedy County TX, which looks to have had the fewest votes for Romney in the US

83 to be exact, still one more than Obama (were any other counties that close?)

[hrmjustin]

26. To show off CNN's and the town's stupidity.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

27. What's the big deal?

Surely, the media would've gone to urban Pennsylvania areas to interview them about why none of them voted for Romney had he won, right?

[frazzled]

28. Yeah, well, come to my town and ask people what they thought about

George W. Bush and Mitt Romney.

How about go to the 21st ward in the city of Chicago, where Obama won 99.29% of the vote (Romney got 0.54 percent of the vote). I'd like to see that interview.

(Overall in the city of Chicago, Obama got 83.99% of the vote.)
