Nearly 50 years in east Alabama, a surname going back to Vikings invading Scotland, and finally too much religious fundamentalism coupled to reactionary radicalism motivates me. I'll share (rarely as of late) my ideas on politics, learning, ... My clan supposedly uses "Peace ... or War!" Maybe those genes compel me to join issue? (Propservralism = PRogressivism + pOPulism + conSERVatism + libeRAL + pragmatISM) Respectfully, John Gunn

Rural American is still leaning right!
Reuters reports McCain leads Obama 51-41 in rural contests: poll and while I'm glad John Mc$ame is down some compared to Bu$hCo in 2004 the fact is that my team is still losing. I'll need to ponder on this one for a while yet expect it comes down to tribalism, a poor message from the Democratic Party, domination of the talk radio scene in more rural areas by the right wingers, religion, lack of education, ... Any other ideas? As for the map, I can't vouch for it yet I do note how the Godless Liberals on the coast and in more urban areas are making bank compared to the Bubbas and Bubbettes that so often vote for the GOP.
