Lovecraft was talking about the historical underpinnings of the modern Republican party

He defined the Republican idea, an institution based on greed

It has been the same for a century or more

Tactically, they are masters at co-opting various special interest groups to carry water for the pigs at the center

The Koch brothers and those similarly wealthy connive to get people to act against their economic interests by appealing to their single issue drivers

anti-abortion
anti-gay
anti-gun control
racists
anti-immigration
anti-Obamacare
anti-taxes

..any individual or group willing to substitute a single issue for a balanced, reasoned, approach is low hanging fruit for the GOP, and the pigs intent on maintaining their strangle hold on the wealth of the country

The Southern Strategy was simply the taking of the political power of nominal southern Democrats who are too stupid to realize that their hate of "niggers" is costing them their economic and health future as they support the Republican pols who play to their racism but do the economic bidding of the uber-wealthy

..how about that Duck Dynasty....
