One other little detail. You pull up the precincts in the SF metro area, and to find the Bush precincts takes work. He lost almost all of them, in Santa Clara County, San Mateo County (Bush lost them all except for about ten precincts in Atherton and Hillsborough, and lost a majority of them even in those super rich areas), Alameda County (almost all except a few inland over the mountains), SF County (all there of course), Marin County (all there too), Contra Costa County ( most of them). Anything that gets too near to the SF metro area is toxic city for Pubbies. The erosion there has been massive for the GOP. Ditto Santa Cruz and Monterey Counties, and going north up the coast is a disaster too (Sonoma, Mendecino), until you get to Del Norte County, a lumberjack area, adjacent to Oregon.
I can't even imagine the GOP or Dubya bothering with anything in the Black Hole of the Bay Area. It's hard to believe that area was once one of the most stalwart GOP areas in the nation, before going into freefall after the late '50s (I mean, even SF had a GOP Congressman, Bill Mailliard, as late as 1974), and now it's not only fallen to the Democrats (and in some of the upper coastal counties, went to the Greens), but I would cease to even classify these areas as pro-American anymore. I think it's going to take a disaster of biblical proportions to take it back from the clutches of darkness.
