Located in the heart of upstate New York, Syracuse is a Republican stronghold...

BullSh!t. Billy C. won Onondaga County twice. W lost to AlWhore in 2000 by over 25,000 votes (54% to 41%), and even Hitlery won here - one of the few upstate counties she won - by over 7% against the hapless Rick Lazio.

Yeah, compared to the Bronx, Syracuse may be a GOP hotbed, but not by any rational standard does it fit that description. Some of the surrounding area (Cayuga County comes to mind) is just as bad lately in terms of idiotically voting for liberals.

Upstate - in places like Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse and Albany - a whopping 60 percent say Hillary is doing a lousy job.

So then, this is really good news.

Funding AIDS is a liberal cause celebre'. I think GW did it solely as a political move. Just like announcing research for hydrogen cars during the SOTU speech. Helps bring over wavering voters in '04.

Anywhere in NYS where you have college towns, you'll probably have a liberal viewpoint of politics. Happens every time.
