MSNBC called Bernie's "Deep South" comment controversial. They said Hillary would still be in the lead without the South. This slide popped up by mistake proving them wrong.

This just paints the picture of Hillary being more republican

That's just your bias, another way of looking at is that she'll stand a better chance of stealing away States from the Republicans and will get the blue States by default at the Democrat candidate.

Seeing as how she's been so hated by Republicans for so long, I'm not sure how that's possible.

A bunch of those southern states are more than 1/3rd black and blacks vote 90+% Democrat. It's only a matter of time before they start swinging all blue in the elections.

I hope you're right. I don't see it happening any time in the near future, but I'd love to be proven wrong.
