I don't know how long you've lived here but I,a lifelong resident,know that this means nothing.It's just a quirk.Here,the proof is in the pudding.
When was the last time the Republican nominee for the Presidency got more than 40% of the vote here? Wasn't it '84? When was the last time Teddy or Kerry got less than 60% of the vote here? When was the last time a *solid* Republican was elected Governor? Exactly how many Republicans have we sent to DC in the last 20 years? How many did we send last year?
I assume you're catching my drift here.
Are *all* residents of this state filthy scumbags? Certainly not.Can the majority...a *solid* majority....of this state's residents be classified that way?
It seems to me that the folks in the area I know are not all mindless liberal dingbats.
Liberals do abound, and I no longer see things changing until some new watershed event comes along.
Still, Obama’s tenancy at 1600 Pennsylvania is likely that crossroad which will determine the direction that our children's lives will driven.
If he survives this term, or gets another, I'd say that it is all over for the USA.
You may be right about folks here but we shall see what happens.
