There are 7,000 Democrats in Whitley County. 19,000 Republicans. Gerrymandering plays an outcome in the election.
Yes Kentucky's General Assembly is Democratic as well as 7 of the 8 constitutional held seats.

Again, I ask about voter turnout in your county. Was it low? What are the registration numbers in your county?

No matter what I say you won't get the point of this thread - so answer this - since you're defending the Democrats on this issue so much, do you think the Republican losses in 2012 were because of low turnout?

Without those people that "do nothing", alot of other folks would not have a job. Remember they consume, that consumption must be met. In Whitley County, that consumption gets met by Wal-Mart. No small businesses but I will continue that thought in "Is the economy improving thread"

However, in stating all of the above. Most educated people tend to vote liberal, and if you are under the theory that education leads to those that contribute to operating the country. I am all about it!

As to your first sentence, you just don't get it man. "Without those people that 'do nothing,' a lot of folks wouldn't have a job." Wow.

Oh, so just because someone possesses those little college degrees that means their opinion automatically trumps somebody who doesn't have one. Which, of course, is a tactic used to dismiss most of what has been said and keep the discussion on more familiar ground. As with so many of your ilk, anything bouncing around in your head might as well be chiseled in granite at the food of some holy mountain.

The assault on traditional values on the laws and constitutional standards of our very recent past, is inexcusable and is led by those who you consider to be sacred, the "educated." You all just walked into some classroom one day in the past and voila, the old light bulb just blinked on! On the grander scale, the wisdom of our forefathers eclipses anything coming out of our institutions of "higher learning." Put another way, it's one thing to read a page of instructions on how to install a transmission in one's car. And, quite another to actually do the work. Why? Because reading up on something (as many of our "educated" do) may serve to make one able to discuss it, but there is no substitute for experience. We have the model that works. We can study and analyze to our heart's content. I advocate for that opinion over academia's bent for redefinition.

Here's the short of it. People make viable arguments about the nature and values upon which our nation is founded. Which, by the way, is healthy and the only way to remind us of who we are and verify we are still on the correct path, and, is the future characteristic of freedom's legitimized process, acted out daily in the congress and duly recorded in the national archives. You dodge pertinent criticisms made against which, you cannot adequately defend.
