Oh wow ... how red tinted are your glasses ...
RMoney was interrupted by Nikky Haley (SC governor and TEA party princess) when RMoney was railing about cutting down on welfare.
The Red states on welfare have for generations if not centuries been red. They have a deeply ingrained welfare culture. They put their welfare supporting republicans into power. NC - which not as bad as SC has a recent governor Pat McCrory - ex charlotte mayor. His first move was to cut unemployment to 60% of its original amount and to 25% of its original duration - and very smartly he didn't touch welfare.
Republicans are all about keeping people on welfare. The biggest shift out of welfare happened under Clinton. The rest of the Bush years saw more and more welfare
That is the republicommunists target demographic. They are also about getting the rich and businesses supporting them - which is why they target the middle class and labor unions.
SC has been republican for over a 100 years. RMoney and McCain won the state by over 20 points and I think they called their election @ 6pm on both occasions.
Welfare queens = republican states. No question.
TEA baggers are dressing around the edges and biting into the middle class.
Cool.
