Pfotenhauer on "Real" Virginia: MSNBC 10/18/08

Kevin Cork on Nancy Pfotenhauer
"MSNBC Live"1:43pm
Surrogate interview

TOPICS: Real virginia

TRANSCRIPT
NANCY PFOTENHAUER: I certainly agree that Northern Virginia has gone more Democratic. As a proud resident of Oakton, VA, I can tell you that the Democrats have just come in from the District of Columbia and moved into northern Virginia [...] But the rest of this state -- real Virginia if you will -- will be very responsive to Sen. McCain's message.
[...]
CORK: I'm gonna give you a chance to climb back off that ledge; did you say 'real Virginia'?

PFOTENHAUER: [laughs] I did say outside of Northern-- well, I mean real Virginia because Northern Virginia is where I've always been, but real Virginia, I take to be this part of the state that is more southern in nature. Northern Virginia is really metro DC, as you're aware, Kevin.

CORK: Alright, I'm just gonna let ya-- you'll wear that one. I'm just, I'm just saying.

"...more southern in nature." you mean racists? Ok. I got what you mean now.

Looks like REAL Virginia and the FAKE Virginia went with Obama.

What an idiot that Pfotenhauer is.

[9B17]

She lives in Arlington? So she is fake Virginian too. No wonder she looks like a virtual SIM character.

[robhex]

You know after watching this 2 years ago, I watch it now and can't believe how ignorant this woman is. I know she'll have her defenders because of her looks, but how can this woman be so stupid.

Northern Virginia isn't part of Real America, good point. Note that the Pentagon is in Northern Virginia; Bin Laden must feel like an idiot for hitting the wrong place (New York City isn't part of Real America either).

@boscogump

Well I don't think Derek Jeter or Alex Rodriguez are down here. So I don't see "Yankee bastards"

You DO need them if you want this state to do anything. Northern Virginia brings in HUGE tax dollars, and is indeed the economic powerhouse. And they are so important. If they weren't they wouldn't be making more money than the rest of the state in the south.

You're just jealous you have to dwell on idiocy from the south and never amount to northern virginia.

[boscogump]

@AmericanNohbuddy What do I think? I think i tired of those smug YANKEE BASTARDS acting like theyre so important. We dont need them.

[AmericanNohbuddy]

@boscogump

yeah and those "yankee bastards" go to those universities because they can pay for them. And no you can't survive when you won't get the tax dollars from Northern Virginia. McDonnell called it the economic engine of the state.

You think military bases and universities can give the amount of income in homes like northern virginia? Dream on.

[boscogump]

@calirrican5 Well the real Virginia isnt crawling with smug Yankee bastards who work in D.C. and then say "oh were so important to the commonwealth.... they would just be a poor bunch of Southern hicks without us." majority of the economy....sorry between all the Military posts and Universities think we can survive just fine

[nyraider91]

"I'm going to give you a chance to climb back off that ledge. Did you say "real" Virginia?" Great response.

[calirrican5]

umm real virginia??

the majority of the economy is based in Northern Virginia, and what amkes sourthern VA more real than Northern VA?

[LadyGraceXx]

What she said is so true. Anyone who thinks southern aka True Virginian's are racist, you are a pathetic judgmental disgusting pig.
