DNC Chair pick & the south

I was interested to read Jerome Armstrong's update on the race for DNC Chair (it's Dean's to lose; I still like Fowler). While looking back at some of what Armstrong has written I ran across this:

We already sucked it up and got Harry Reid for the Red State Minority Leader in the Senate, give us a break with the condescending remarks about wanting Southern and Midwestern values for the DNC. I'll stack up the West Coast-Northeastern coalition of freedom-for-all, morality-for-all, and liberty-for-all global values against those Red State regional resentments of moral superiority anytime, anyplace, and make the right choice. We want a Democratic Leader from a Democratic state.

From the red red center of a very Red State, I wholeheartedly agree.
