Scarborough is feeding his liberal MSNBC viewers pablum and you ate it all up. This country was always set up so that the rural vote was worth more than the urban. Since the Republicans own the rural vote right now enjoy! Before LBJ's experiment the Dems owned the rural vote and owned Congress for most of the 20th Century.
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
And the Dems STILL got 1-million more votes for the House than the GOP did... And we'll fix the gerrymandering problem in a few years. Your "old angry white guys" are dying off, and you're not selling anything that rest of the demographics are buying.
It's ok for some old people to be angry as long as they are of a certain political ideology (especially if they are old white women). Old white men are not allowed to be angry because everything has been given to them, without cost, all their lives (unless of course they are old "progressive" white men).
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
It isn't gerrymandering that Wyoming gets a representative to Congress with only 800K people. California gets 43 represenatatives, representing about 1.2 million voters per district. This isn't gerrymandering it is civics class. Maybe you need to study more history rather than listening to sensationalistic talk hosts who will do anything to drum up ratings?
Gerrymandering made Allen West(R) lose his seat in Florida and the districts were set up by Republicans so gerrymandering doesn't always work.
Hickenlooper & the Dems tried to make Colorado districts more balanced (Dem gerrymandering) after the census to make it harder for extreme candidates of both parties to win, but no change this year.

Maybe you need to study demographics instead of regurgitating the talking-point drivel of the right-wing blogosphere.
