This just in. Nancy Pfotenhauer of the McCain Campaign has taken up the Palin torch in describing the "Southern" parts of the state of Virginia as "Real Virgnia" on MSNBC.
MSNBC news correspondent Kevin Corke gave Ms. Pfotenhauer a chance to recant her statement but she would have none of it. Corke, said, and I paraphrase, "I'm going to give you a chance to get back off that ledge", as he questioned Ms. Pfotenhauer about her statement regarding people in "Real Virginia". Again, Ms. Pfotenhauer held fast to her notion that people in Northern Virginia were simply metro Washington, D.C. migrants that did not hold the values of Southern Virginians, i.e. "Real Virginians".
Corke was visibly dumbfounded by Ms. Pfotenhauer's comments as he noted that he was in Washington, D.C. and did not share her distinction. Ms. Pfotenhauer continued on as she revealed that she was a resident of the northern VA city of Oakton and tried to sway Mr. Corke to support her view but he did not bite at all.
Please take a moment to digest the intentional despicable comments made by the McCain-Palin team. This is my innaugural post, but I promise it will not be my last as I am devoted to expose the right-wing's divisive and digusting tactics.
There is no video or link of Ms. Pfotenhauer's interview yet, but here are a few of McCain's top surrogates most recent memorable hits during the 2008 election season.
Republican representative Michelle Bachmann from Minnesota's 6th District makes me feel as though our country is regressing toward an 1863-style Civil War backed by her 1950's-like McCarthyism garble on "Hardball with Chris Mathews" as seen here.

Next, here is Republican Governor and Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin trying to cleanup the mess that she made in claiming that people in small towns outside of Washington, D.C. made up "Real America" and that they lived in "Pro-America" areas . Yikes!!!

Here is John McCain's brother describing Northern Virginia as communist country.

Now today Ms. Pfotenhauer has followed in lock-step with her associates in defining Northern Virginians, which I am one, as not being "Real Virginians". Shame on her.
I will update this post if a link to Ms. Pfotenhauer's interview becomes available.
