Funny how no one’s mentioned that Tennessee has gone for the winner in every election since, I believe, 1960. And, it’s safely red again this time.

I am a native-born Tennessean who has lived in Georgia for most of my adult life. I proudly watched Tennessee go Republican and reject its native-born son, Al Gore.

I also have had the privilege of being in the vanguard of
Republicans who helped Georgia go Repub on almost every level—governor, state house, state senate,etc., etc. We even elected a Repub state rep, and state senator from my own formerly locked-up Democratic district. It was so bad in the beginning that poll workers would tell us that surely we wanted a Democratic ballot so that we could vote on local elections. Repubs were so intimidated that hardly anyone would run in any race.

I’ve already voted for McCain—early voted last week. I’m trusting that my fellow conservative Georgians carry the state—hopefully by a large margin. We wish that McCain were more conservative himself in some areas—but we are solidly behind him.
