I think the comparison is quite valid. Take a look at any state...take California....You have a handful of counties voting liberal democrat, making the laws for the rest of us, consolidating power and wealth in the university ridden, coastal cities. Lack of representation and being ruled by the wealthy north is what the Civil War was about.
hye I agree I live in CA and I saw the map of the counties Kerry did not win alot of the state he just won were there was a large amount of people I live in the Bay Area they are very liberal I know I worked hard on getting my co-workers to vote bush and I think by the congrat's I got at work and the hugs I might have changed a few minds Like Hannity always says on his show oh goodness I cant think of what he said know. oh well CA has spoken check the map to bad and Arnold said it prefectly LIBERALS ARE LOSERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OF COURSE HE KIND OF BACK TRACKED ON THAT
