Beckel then slipped into a Southern twang and explained his view of the type of people who watch dog fighting.<\/p>

“What?” asked panelist Andrea Tantaros after Beckel described them as being consumers of “RC Cola” and “MoonPies.”<\/p>

“I used to be a redneck, I can talk about rednecks.”<\/p>

Later on the show, Beckel apologized. “When I talk about rednecks; blacks are rednecks, whites are rednecks, I was a redneck, Chinamen are rednecks.”<\/p><\/blockquote>

Editor's comment - A bad case of \"Biden-itis\" perhaps? \"You can't go into a convenience store in Delaware without hearing some guy speaking Indian...\"<\/em><\/p>
