19. How does "our folks" resonate in Georgia?
Edited on Wed Nov-12-08 02:19 PM by breadandwine
Chambliss was careful to say he was proud that many Georgians were voting. Maybe in Massachusetts "our folks" would get a bad public reaction. But in Georgia? Will it be perceived as racist or "folksy"? "Our folks" could be interpreted in Georgia as simply "the people who are supporting me." I'm skeptical that Georgian media will treat this as a Macaca moment. I would imagine that most of the news organizations in Georgia are like FOX and cover for the GOP.
