For what exactly? Having opinions contrary to some of your residents?

“Nobody has any affection for her,” he said. “The majority don’t.”

Because you’ve clearly spoken to a majority of residents.

Shorter Arkansas GOP Official: My state is full of psychopathic, gun toting assassins.

What a great strategy to attract businesses and promote tourism…

I have a feeling the majority of Arkansauceans disagree with me as well. Will I be shot?

I guess I better stay away just in case…devastatingly, I won’t be able to visit fabulous, fantastic Arkansas this year.

They don’t hate her for what she is, they hate her for what Fox Noise and the other right-wing media say she is.

Maybe the fact that Republicans are all sick fuck sociopaths has something to do with it.

Rhoda got his doctorate degree from a place who gives them to dogs. http://www.arktimes.com/ArkansasBlog/archives/2014/06/24/arkansas-republican-says-hillary-would-probably-get-shot-in-arkansas-wait-until-you-see-what-genius-said-this

Welcome to the new and improved, more sensitive GOP.

Heh. Not so much.

That’s ok - there are 49 other states plus DC that she could go to. She can win the Presidency without their 6 electoral votes.

And then, immediately after she’s taken the oath of office, remove any Federal assistance that is directed toward Arkansas.

That’s a fair trade for threatening to shoot her at the State line.

It’s a good thing Hillary hasn’t announced her candidacy yet or Rhoda (if that really is his name) could expect a visit from the Secret Service. From the mouth of some “high-ranking GOP official” to the ear of some gun-toting Republican nut-job is not six degrees of separation.

We here in Vermont don’t exactly like Republicans all that much and yet, while a Republican might get a chilly welcome, they won’t get shot. Maybe you should stop thinking in terms of Us vs. Them and welcome everyone even if you don’t particularly like them.

OUTREACH!

Also, the inevitable GOP projection. Ol’ Johnny is the one who has no “affection for her”, not the majority.

“Nobody has any affection for her,” he said. “The majority don’t”.

Wow, from “nobody” to up to 49.9% in less than an instant!

Bet that comment sounded real clever when he said it and nudged his buddies in the ribs … but now that it is playing in national media - he sounds like a stereotypical rube!
