"I am depressed, but I am also just really angry at the rest of the country's ignorance," Ms. Sloan said
Standard-issue Leftist elitism and condecension. They still don't get it, and as long as they continue to fail to get it they will lose elections.

The provincial attitudes of the west and east coasts is that the heartland exists only to provide fast food, gasoline and lodging for cross country road trips.

Actually if you will look at the maps that show county by county voting you will see that most of California is red, geographically speaking. Only a few areas are blue, the major urban areas, SF, LA, Sacramento, etc. This is because of all the minorities in the urban areas think that the dems will give them more welfare and other benefits, so they vote democrat, without really knowing what the party is about. There is where some education is needed. As to the dems saying that they need to educate us dummies of the right/middle, well as long as they fail to figure it out, we will keep getting our country back from the liberal(communist)socialist.

I am in Sonoma County, about an hour's drive north of San Francisco. The mood is not uniformly dark here, but it ain't pretty. I was due to go to a lunch today, and nearly cancelled since I was worried that things might be said which couldn't be taken back. At the last minute I did go to lunch, and found only two other members there, when we usually have six to eight. We three had a nice lunch, though we were all extremely careful not to get too deeply into the election, since they know I voted Bush and they voted sKerry. I anticipate 4 more years of pussyfootin' around, if I want to have any friends here ... sigh ....
But it's worth it to have GWB in office! :)

He called a friend and headed straight to the Red and Black Cafe, an all-organic, wheat-free, vegetarian coffee and food shop, which is run as a collective and is a popular hangout of the Socialist Party USA's candidate for president, Walt Brown. LOL, This is classic. Don't they get that they are a bad cliche? How pathetic to live your life like this an have no clue. Jeeze, the 60's are over.

In Portland, Ore., a city so staunchly liberal that it is sometimes called the People's Republic of Portland, the outcome of the presidential race was absorbed with the levity of a mass funeral.You mean like in the Wellstone memorial?

"There is a sense of helplessness that we couldn't tip the election in any way," said Mayor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, who helped to push gay marriage into the national spotlight. "We couldn't do it rhetorically or in an actual vote. You feel powerless."
Don't feel powerless. You and the other gay-marriage proponents did effect the election. Numerous God-fearing Americans voted because of you. They voted to ban gay-marriage and they voted for GWB. See, you did tip the election.

At the next table, Tchula Z, 33, an artist and part-time barista at her sister's coffee shop, who uses only Z as a last name, said she woke up Wednesday, learned that Mr. Bush had won and "smoked a cigarette and freaked out." She added, "You know, as Janis Joplin said, 'Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.' I think people should start using that line again."What, you're going to lose that "Z" too? You won't have a last name!

"For Ohioans living in on the West Coast, it was a particularly tough day. Jennifer Sloan, 29, was so incensed about Ohio's support of Mr. Bush that she had considered canceling her mother's visit. Ms. Sloan's mother was arriving in San Francisco on Wednesday from Alliance, Ohio, where she lives and where she voted for Mr. Bush."
Unbelievable. Reminds me of the lady who is told everybody to vote (u know, it's our right...), but when she found out her mother was voting for W, she asked her not to. Unbelievable.

Mr. Rubin is the real-deal California liberal - part-time vegetarian, cat lover, sensitive to cigarette smoke. He says he has never owned a car, never had a credit card or a driver's license; he lists peace activist as his occupation.In other words, unemployed. It never ceases to amaze me that the real life adventures of these cretins fully lives up to our charicatures and stereotypes.
"Maybe I'm on the wrong side of the culture war," Mr. Rubin said.
Well, duh.... ya think?
