Five Thirty Eight has a great piece on the demographics of what the candidates think the “real America” is.

As Barack Obama said, ”There are no real or fake parts of this country. We’re not separated by the pro-america and anti-america parts of this country…”

Uppity

Georgia GOP Congressman Lynn Westmoreland calls Obama uppity. The long campaign is wearing on them–it’s starting to get real hard for the GOP to remember what they are not supposed to say in public.
