"Angry White Men"--A Must Read From A Small Paper

On February 9, 2008, Gary Hubbell, a local columnist for the Aspen (Co.) Time News wrote a pointed column entitled In election 2008, don’t forget Angry White Man. The editorial has caught fire on the Internet and was read by Rush on his radio show yesterday. While we may not agree with every word or claim, the general point has a solid ring to it.

For all of the hours of punditry on Fox, MSNBC, and other stations it has been left to this local columnist to write one of the best pieces about this years election. "There is one group no one has recognized, and it is the group that will decide the election: the Angry White Man. The Angry White Man comes from all economic backgrounds, from dirt-poor to filthy rich. He represents all geographic areas in America, from urban sophisticate to rural redneck, deep South to mountain West, left Coast to Eastern Seaboard."

His description and analysis resonates with men, and politicians of all strips will do well to paid his thoughts heed.
