Kind of reminds me of the liberal from New York City, as I recall, who couldn't understand how Ronald Reagan could have been elected, since no one he knew voted for him.
(may have been a different Republican victory)

(I'm a Christian, pro-life, pro-gun, Reaganite. The GOP hates me. Why should I vote for them?)
In November 1972 after the election, the film critic and self-anointed pundit Pauline Kael uttered this remark (taken down for posterity by her secretary):
"I just can't understand how Nixon won like that (i.e. in a 49-state landslide). I don't know a single person who voted for him."
Thus proving for all time that Upper Eastsiders live in an impenetrable bubble.
