[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's all the royals. Conservatives yearn for a hierarchy they think they would be near the top of. It's the same as poor people voting republican: they somehow imagine that their future involves moving in those circles themselves. They are blind to the contempt in which Rs hold them. "Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat, but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires."

Oh, and [b]there's the racial aspect[/b]. When Meghan came onto the scene, they were aghast that a black women could be elevated above them, and rallied around Kate, whose whiteness makes her automatically superior in their eyes. [/quote]

Get over yourself... most people wouldn't have even known Meghan was biracial until they saw her mom.  No one cares.  But lots of people thought she was a social climbing attention-seeker, totally out-of-step with royal tradition.  And guess what?  We were right.[/quote]

And the Middletons aren't social climbers? All three Middleton children married rich and have never worked. Kate followed William for 10 years, even changing unis and majors to get near him (Anna Pasternak's article lays it all out; it's great reading if you're not afraid.) Get over your own sycophantic self. [/quote]
