Obama Rips It: Obama on small-town PA: Clinging religion, guns, xenophobia [ KLP Note: Soon, even the small town folks are going to realize that Obama is talking DOWN to them...and they are NOT going to like that at all.....] politico.com April 11, 2008 Categories: Barack Obama Mayhill Fowler has more from Obama's remarks at a San Francisco fundraiser Sunday, and they include an attempt to explain the resentment in small-town Pennsylvania that won't be appreciated by some of the people whose votes Obama's seeking: >>>>>You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them...And they fell through the Clinton Administration, and the Bush Administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.<<<<< That's pretty broad list of things to explain with job loss.
