ALL of the south suburbs here in Dayton are McCain signs. Far more than Bush-—I attribute this to a lot of people didn’t like Bush’s “religiousity.” (I actually overheard a conversation in a donut shop among four businessmen-—whom I bet were cheating on their wives and doing funny things with tax returns-—who were complaining in 2000 that Bush had ties to “Falwell and Robertson.” They were almost certainly “country club” Republicans who didn’t want to hear about abortion or sin. But I’m betting McCain gets every one of their votes.
You could call it payback.
