I have a feeling the dems are smarting right about now.
Go Dixie!
Funny Weird Algore could not carry his own state either.

Funny Clinton's state learned its lesson
The first Republican state rep in Meade Co, KY history was elected Tuesday!!!
more history than that: The Republicans elected their first georgia gov. two years ago and the senate (with some party changing) went republican. This year the house and senate are decidedly republican for the first time in 150 years.
I just love the fact that there were 3 big name Democrats campaigning for Kerry and they couldn't even hand him one state.
She forgot to include the Dems' "GREATEST" success in the south..Cynthia McKinney recaptured the seat she lost in 2002..She's BAAAACCCCKK!!!!
I've heard that they didn't even win Edwards' home county, let alone the state, which is truly amazing.
The problem for the Democrats is that they honestly believe that they are viewed by the majority of the people in this country as being correct on the issues. It doesn't matter that they are losing increasingly large tracts of territory every election cycle to us. They simply refuse to acknowledge that they are wrong and that they need to do some serious re-evaluation of their positions. Their values and beliefs are out of touch with an enormous section of geographic middle of this country and the folks who live in those areas are beginning to become aware of this.
They came within less than 500,000 votes total (Pennsylvania, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin) of losing the entire US except the Northeast and West Coast against a president who probably would have been quite vulnerable to a moderate. Their margins in many liberal strongholds declined from Gore's totals of 2000. That should be a big-time wakeup call, but apparently the blinders are on a little too tight. They seem content with the status quo of being rendered increasingly irrelevant by their own actions.
It's about time. We Southerners should have been electing Republicans for the last 25 years. The Democrats only care about gay marriage, high taxes, and denigrating Christians like me every chance they get. By 2006, I hope the only Dems in Dixieland are those with electorates much too stupid to understand that the GOP is the answer. The Dems are the problem, without a doubt.....
What happened to that dingbat McKinney? I heard she was so confident that she was already scoping out new office space in DC. But I haven't seen anything posted since the election.
My rep's also Mike Rogers. Hopefully this one's also a good guy.
Al Gore carried his birthplace, the District of Columbia...it just happens not to be a state.
Touché.
The South's Gonna Rise Agin'!

(Please Don't Flame Me. This is intended as humor. Nothing more.)
If you recall, Kerry in the primaries even said that EDWARDS could not carry his own state. This was common knowledge, because Edwards, the moment he went to DC, forgot NC and started running for President. He did not run for re-election because he knew he could NOT win.
I do not think the dems thought they had a chance in the South. They pulled their ads in NC ...knowing it was a waste of cash.
They never expected to carry the South. No surprise.
southern shock **ping** (hint democrats)
DIXIE PING!
