Pfotenhauer Insults Virginians - McCain Winning In 'Real' Virginia

On MSNBC this morning, McCain adviser Nancy Pfotenhauer asserted that real Virginia does not include Northern Virginia: I certainly agree that Northern Virginia has gone more Democratic. But the rest of the state — real Virginia if you will — I think will be very responsive to Senator McCains message.

MSNBC host Kevin Cork gave Pfotenhauer a chance to revise her answer, telling her: Nancy, Im going to give you a chance to climb back off that ledge — Did you say real Virginia?

But Pfotenhauer didnt budge, and instead dug a deeper hole. Real Virginia, I take to be, this part of the state thats more Southern in nature, if you will.

Hey all, remember this headline?

'Hillary Clinton leads John McCain in early 2008 Presidential Poll'

Yeah right.

[ThePatriotsMaxims]

She did hold a lead among primary candidates over McCain. So did Obama. what's your point?

[zepoholic]

People, you might as well get used to it. Polls are not accurate at all. In fact, historically, in every election, the underdog always comes out on top (surprise!). Why? Because the pollers notoriously "lean" questions to the way they want them to go. Face it. President John McCain.

[ThePatriotsMaxims]

So if the biased FOX News poll has Obama ahead by 5, it is actually higher since they "leaned" their questions towards McCain?

[zepoholic]

ThePatriotsMaxims: Ah yes, well correct. So, fox leans their polls, then you have the biased MSNBC, CNN, ABC, WBZ, CBS, etc. who are leaning theirs. Get the big picture? ASS.

[ThePatriotsMaxims]

So all the major, respected pollsters have a bias....I need to ask you this with all due lack of respect. Are you retarded?

Why no mention of Gallup, Rasmussen, Survey US...pollsters whose results are the ones used by the news agencies?

I guess the "Real" Americans live in "Real" Virginia. Not like the rest of us that live here in this country. We're not real. We're not Americans.

Y'all ain't real Amuricans unless yur a gun totin racist PIG!

raised in Richmond, VA....and voting for Obama

[NewtonsStudent]

straight up cunt.

[dwj91]

Well I guess Virginia responded to you Nancy. This lady is dumb!!!! Comments like "real and fake Virginia" or "real and fake America", like Palin said, are why you idiots LOST BAD!!!!

[jorgemartinez18]

North and East Virginia is real Virginia, dumbass!

[Sp3rmin8tor3000]

Anyone know if that whole "Potomac War" shit is true? Because i see their videos and feel ashamed to live in America.....

[quentint22206]

It's laughable that she says many people moved from D.C. into Northern Virginia. That's blatantly false. While it's true that Northern Virginia is more sophisticated, educated, and liberal, one could argue the same about any state and it's pocketed areas. What a ditz she is. Born in Roanoke and now living in Arlington, I am a "real Virginian" who loathes McCain.

[TexasAg1998]

I understand what she was trying to say. Politically, the Northern Virgina region is heavily influenced by DC politics and not reflective of the state as a whole. A similar analogue would be Chicago's influence on Indiana. Certainly not reflective of the whole state, you might refer to the rest of the state as "Real Indiana", meaning that it isn't dominated by external influences. Probably a poor choice of words regardless.

To quote the Daily Show appropriately,

"What the Pfuck?"

[dougmanjones]

Obama ran a campaign based on inclusion; McCain ras his based on exclusion. I think this is what it all comes down to.

from 1:18 onwards = EPIC FAIL. That reporter is SLICK.
