Those on the democrat side of the election need to take a serious look at the political map and realize there are not that many blue states. There are red states with blue in the more populous areas like the northeast with the Boston to Georgetown axis and southeast California.

Ted Rall, cartoonist: "Why shouldn't those of us on the coasts feel superior? We eat better, travel more, dress better, watch cooler movies, earn better salaries, meet more interesting people, listen to better music and know more about what's going on in the world. If you voted for Bush, we accept that we have to share the country with you. We're adjusting to the possibility that there may be more of you than there are of us. But don't demand our respect. You lost it on Nov. 2."

Ted, please tell me what FORM of government predominates where a large portion of it's society relies upon: 1.) Govt. Jobs 2.) Govt. Transportation 3.) Govt. Food 4.) Govt. Housing 5.) Govt. Schools 6.) Govt. Child Care 7.) Govt. Financial Assistance and 8.) Govt. Health Care ?????

Ted, what you got there is SOCIALISM and that s what you get with all those Big Blue cities. If thats what you consider paradise, you can have it. Problem is that you guys want us to pay for it and we're sick and tired of doing that!!
