1. what the heck is wrong with that state?

Didn't Al Gore's dad run a newspaper there? Didn't they elect him to the senate repeatedly?

When did ALEC start poisoning Tennessee's water supplies?

2. it's been a while

I think Gore lost Tennessee in 2000.

4. I live here.

You want the whole list, or the top 10?

Let's just say most things here are rooted in uneducated and reflexive points of view, slathered in religion, and sprinkled liberally (no pun intended) with racism.

5. The sane people of TN have allowed the religious extremists to take over.

Most country music star are dumber than well ropes, and support the GOP, no matter who it is. Memphis is so racially divided that who knows what they will do. Nashville used to be moderate, but has been taken over by the religious extremists. Knoxville could go either way. get outside of those major cities and the rest is religious extremism gone amok. And that is sad. TN used to be a great state.

The stupid is strong here.

6. I'm in the state on your northern border, and your "stupid" is no stronger than ours.

They keep screaming coal, coal, coal, but coal demand has been in decline for 25 years. To hell with investing in technology. It must be coal, coal, coal.

7. I go to East Kentucky

every year to ride ATV's and crawler trucks.What they have done to the mountains there should be against the law.Just to get coal.
