GDP sporks a new acronym! What is an 'LIV'

[endarkenment]

it seems that it is bad, but I don't know what it is. Please help the acronym impaired!

[PBS Poll-435]

1. Low Information Voter

It is a smear on poor white people in Appalachia.

The ones who brought Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania & West Virginia to Bill Clinton in 1996

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

4. As opposed to HMV?

High Misinformation Voter
:rofl:

my head is swimming with misinformation. trying to pick out the good bits is the tough part.


Actually, I don't care how much information some voters have. As long as they vote Democratic in November.
:hi:

[QC]

6. Yep, it's a PC way to say "white trash."

I love the attitude of some supporters of one of the candidates: "Those goddam sister-fucking genetic catastrophe hicks won't vote for us! Can you believe that?"

[PBS Poll-435]

10. Indeed

I don't know how they can see to walk with their noses so high in the air....

[QC]

12. Much less how they keep from dropping their perfumed hankies and jeweled snuffboxes

while making such gestures of aristocratic shock at the boorishness of the peasants.

[PBS Poll-435]

14. Again I agree.

What has happened to my party where people want other people excluded for the exclusive reason that "those people" don't support a candidate.

[dionysus]

19. yeah, the hillary's for us little guys!!!!!

are you out... of... your... mind....
:rofl:

[QC]

20. Who said Hillary was looking out for the little people? n/t

[PBS Poll-435]

21. Wow...Did you ever miss the point.

It is not Hillary's supporters that are constantly saying nasty things about poor white people that vote Democratic.

There is a reason that WV, AR, MI, ND have 2 Democratic Senators.

[dionysus]

23. no, i did not miss the point. you guys are tacitly pushing the "obama is an elitist" meme...

[PBS Poll-435]

25. Again...you missed the point.

It is an insult and it is the Obama Campaign's attempt at insulting poor white folk and justifying the disconnect that they have to his campaign.

They are just stupid and racist after all, right?

[spoony]

27. I don't think Obama posts here

If he did, I can only imagine what he'd think of the attitudes of some of his supporters.

[spoony]

26. LOL

Fantastic, and the picture is just perfect.

[QC]

2. Low Information Voter.

It's a very stupid and self-defeating characterization of voters who do not support a particular candidate.

[endarkenment]

3. I agree. It is crap. People should wise up.

[QC]

5. For a lot of people here, elections are not about taking power.

They are, instead, an opportunity to display one's moral and intellectual superiority to the great unwashed masses. What better way to do that than to create snide terms for those who are beneath us?

7. Unnn, someone who claims the sky is polka dot, the grass is blue and Hillary supported NAFTA and is

...serious might be a low information voter.

Pretty much they believe anything because they only got half of the story

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

16. Polka dot skies...

[Shae]

17. I see ...

"someone who claims . . . "Hillary supported NAFTA and is serious might be a low information voter."

But I've seen her supporting NAFTA on youtube

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqAiqppOCiY (the NAFTA stuff about 3:30 in)

So who do I believe? You or my own lyin' eyes?

[Liberal Gramma]

8. Then the smart ones would be HIV?

Doesn't sound like a workable acronym to me.

[uponit7771]

9. What would be a better less condescending description of someone who says things like Hillary

...didn't support NAFTA or the Bush admin told the truth about AQ and Iraq relationship?

[Liberal Gramma]

11. Dunno

I can't think of a term to describe an uneducated, uninformed voter who votes their bible instead of their interests that wouldn't be viewed as derogatory by said voter. Myself, when I see someone who is beyond ignorant, I call them "Republican"

[L0oniX]

13. But the GOP depends on the LIV. n/t

[GoldieAZ49]

15. Obama supporters that know his political background would be LIV

there is a Low amount of information because he is a rookie

so all Obama voters are LIV

[Hutzpa]

18. Thank you for displaying your intelligence,

oh so very kind of you to pay us your expertiate....nope...whooops...

I did it, didn't I, sorry your EX-PER-TISE....

:evilgrin:

[rug]

22. Lies I Value.

In GDP, usually seen in close proximity to an Obama logo.

[Auntie Bush]

24. Low Income Vermonters/Voters....... ie white trash.
