Bitter Pennsylvanians really bringing us all down


"I just had a coffee that costs more than your trailer."

In the latest campaign "controversy," Barack Obama dared to call blue-collar Pennsylvanians "bitter." Yeah, so join the club, Pennsylvania.

Hillary Clinton's response was to take the high road, and use the quote as an opportunity to talk about the real issues affecting rural Americans. Just kidding! Instead she chose to use the innocuous remark as her last ditch attempt to claw her way back from the grave.

So while they fight it out, it's worth asking: What are Pennsylvanians so bitter about in the first place?
