And it has nothing to do with his race. Via Benen. What it also means – now that the GOP is an almost entirely Southern party – is that the Republicans cannot really take this on. 58 percent – a clear majority of Republican voters – either don’t believe or are unsure about whether Obama is legitimately the president of the United States.

RIP Republican Party. How fast is this crumbling for you guys? You went to bed with the nutbags and woke up in the internet age. Suddenly completely out of touch with the majority of Americans. Sarah Palin is the best known politician in your party, and Rush Limbaugh its most popular member. You wish you lived 50 years ago, and those are still the values you want to impose on the kids. Wake up. The internet is coming to your town. You will no longer be able to “shield” your kids from the world. They will know whatever they want to know and they will act however they want to act.That means the Republican party is left with southern racists heading towards their coffins (socialized healthcare pun intended).
You can still change your ways and focus on economics instead of social values… oh, except your previous 8 years left us in a recession. Not too good at that either huh?
Lets see if your corporate funders can bring you back from the dead. Like a giant zombie wrecking havoc against a people’s democracy.
