THE WORST LEGACY of the '60s was its Vietnam complex.

I disagree...the worst legacy was its influence on abortion as contraception, homosexual normalization, divorce no longer shamed and liberalism.

If you can remember the '60s, you really weren't there.

I was born in the late 60's and am thankful I didn't have to grow up in it.

Great map, just what I wanted to see. Where can one get a look at this? Would also love to see how it compares to 2000 election.

Note the purity of Nebraska, Oklahoma, and (so far) Utah.

Thanks for posting this.

Hugh Hewitt is a great cheerleader for the left, and a genuine genius.

I am grateful that we, as a nation, had a chance to exhume the Vietnam War, re-examine it with some distance and wisdom and honesty (and not the heat of the 60's). Swiftvets made a good case and represented all that was good and decedent about Vietnam, and I for one feel better about that war than I ever did. I only wish our country had had the will to win it -- but we did not, and thus we lost.

But, now it can be laid to rest again, and this time may the anger and recriminations that were Vietnam "rest in peace."

I just thought about this: Hugh went off the air at 1:00am, Left Coast time. His show started at 3pm, 10 hours earlier. I conked out at the same time. I wish I'd called Hugh and told him what a great job he had done.

Kudos also to Laura Ingraham, Rick Roberts, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Larry Elder, Dennis Prager, Michael Medved, Michael Savage, Tony Snow, Al Rantel, Ann Coulter, John Ziegler, Tammy Bruce, and a cast of thousands.

"In short, the old left has to let go, and let the new left grow up and learn to shun the nuts like Michael Moore while learning to support American foreign policy."

It isn't your first sentence but "the old left has to let go" is your first mistake. Why does it have to let go? Because its behaviors don't work? Look again. The left got 48% of the voters to vote for the most liberal man in the Senate. That's more (damage) than it could do in, say, 1972 (when it was the new left). Don't look now but they are making headway.

As for learning---they don't learn, man, it's too artificial, it's unnatural. They're still offering up ultra-liberal fanatics for candidates. The change you see---their near-success yesterday---is not a result of learning, it is a spreading of unlearning; a contagion of intellectual slovenliness. An entire generation has been exposed to their foulness. Millions are disabled.

As for learning to support American foreign policy...bwahahahahahahaha!!! You know what they say about teaching pigs to sing.

The DU had a poll up last night about which way to go next. Further left or toward the center? Well over half endorsed a more extreme leftward path. Insanity is repeating the behavior and expecting different results; so perhaps they are something even worse than learning disabled.

THE WORST LEGACY of the '60s was its Vietnam complex.

The Vietnam war protest was just an excuse to ram "sex, drugs and rock n roll culture down our country's throat. It was about a revolution against all we hold dear.

The atheistic and even pagan influence on our culture was devestating.

The liberal 1960s Supreme Court continued to unravel the true constitution (just like the Earl Warren Court) and replace it (illegally) with the ACLU fairy tale version.

An all out attack on 400 years of American heritage was mobilized by the left and they monopolized the media and education.

Lol, looking at the southeast tip of Florida it looks like they still can't count.

Indeed, though some like to make us feel like idiots. It will be interesting to see what the now conservative state BOE does with the science standards/evolution again.

Actually the '60s are probably not over. Abortion is still promoted by many in America. The Republicans' own Arnold the "Terminator" has helped to get embryonic stem cell research approved in California. The media and Hollywood continue to promote a trashy and amoral counter-culture. The legacy of the 1960s continues in many forms.

I think we're in agreement here...except I still like "Rock n Roll".
