I'm OK, You're Not OK

Micheal Barone thinks you're not OK:

This is similar but not identical to a point I’ve often made: that the Republican Party is the party of people who are considered, by themselves and by others, as normal Americans—Northern white Protestants in the 19th century, married white Christians more recently—while the Democratic Party is the party of the out groups who are in some sense seen, by themselves and by others, as not normal—white Southerners and Catholic immigrants in the 19th century, blacks and white seculars more recently. Thus it’s natural for the Democrats to be more fissiparous.

(my emphasis)

Got that? Normal people are Republicans, abnormal people are Democrats. It's a GOP country and all you darkies, queers and atheists, should be grateful you're allowed to live here.

Anyone still wondering why the GOP has trouble attracting minority voters?
