Didn't you know that all demographic categories encompassing tens of millions of individuals determine the consciousness and choices of each and every member and it's morally wrong to suggest otherwise? https://t.co/Zpn5aMRfBI

They are talking about this tweeted article:

I wish this article had something about a white woman, even just the one (and I'm sure she's out there somewhere!) who bought an anti-racist book, or tried but it was sold out, then went and voted for Trump https://t.co/BYncY6F8GQ

Wow, what a fab collection of finds, PP, right up my alley. Was hoping some journalist peeps do more on the Catholic thing BUT ESPECIALLY

Diverse women in GA, xover in AZ - who knew?

I knew. I knew from real life adventures in Greenville, SC and Atlanta over the years. I tried to post on it when I saw something, here and there. Southern wimmin have really strong interracial friendships, it's definitely been a thing for a very long time. (There's also the stereotype Hollywood version of the phenom Fried Green Tomatoes and Steel Magnolias etc.)

Should note the elephant in

Should note the elephant in the room - Gabby Giffords, Congresswoman forced into retirement by a shooter, and her astronaut husband Mark Kelly replacing her. Can we talk weird exciting American diversity that sometimes is far beyond simple words? Gifford, a Jewish/Christian Scientist, ex-CEO of family Tire business & Price Waterhouse wonk who studied Mexican-American relations, switched from Republican to Democrat in 2000 to run for office. And husband, Navy/Operation Desert Storm combat/NASA shuttle pilot (including after the shooting) who switched from Independent to Democrat in 2018. I can only imagine the start power & effect they've had on the Arizona community.

Kelly now stressing bipartisanship.

What “an incredible way to close that circle after ’16, to have this state, of all states, be one of the ones to say, ‘We’re done.’”

I followed @senatorjen and the women who took over Newt Gingrich's old stomping ground and turned Georgia blue:https://t.co/UN6Iwj9CRd

AZ women

Formerly Republican women found themselves cheering for Arizona to turn blue. Will there be a place for them in the Democratic Party?

Well, many evangelicals have white skin but quite a few of them have black skin, so there's your confusion problem right there! If you'd just keep your skin color tribes segregated, you wouldn't have these problems! It's very simple, all people with black skin are right thinking, and all people with white skin have bad thinking and need to be re-educated. Capiche?

Similarly some evangelicals try to thread the needle

Have the evangelical leaders who went all-in for Trump "hurt the church’s ability to reach people outside the church? Absolutely," Andy Stanley, the hugely influential pastor of arguably the second-biggest megachurch in the U.S., told me. https://t.co/Mulbiasj8p
