Isn't it more politically correct to blame people's not adopting the right attitude in the present on the government having failed to deliver in the past, rather than blaming them for their own intolerance or ignorance (as your audience would see it)?
A non-PC response might have been "those rednecks are too stupid to get out of their own way and vote for the party and candidate that is more likely to deliver the goods."
