I was actually surprised that McCain/Palin only won by 60/40 in my county. But you can't judge by yard sign percentages alone.

Brenda, Rahm is Jewish, and his Dad came over from Israel. The family is fascinating. Whip-smart, a little nuts (esp. The youngest brother, Ari), and two of the three boys have had fictional characters based on them.

calli, I had meant to say that on Tuesday, I called my sister to tell her that the new president was younger than her. It is a younger sister's duty!

The county I grew up in went 77+% for McCain - MORE Repub than in 2004. It is also 96% white, which - wow.
The county I live in now went 74+% for Obama - MORE Dem than in 2004. It is 55% white, which is no surprise.

So's mine. Although, since she was born in '61, she is slightly younger than the president.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
No, that's not President Bush's approval rating. It's the number of counties that voted more Republican than in 2004.
This has been discussed, but has this particular map (the bottom of the two) been linked to?
As DemfromCT noted over three months ago, and as MSNBC notes today, "[i]t's hard not to look at the map ... and not view the GOP as a regional party right now."

Neat! I need to pay more attention to this stuff. Anyway, my point was really only that it's not a whitebread Amerrurican name and as such, maybe an extra kick in the pants to a certain loathsome sector of society, Which, yay.

I get the little red blip in Arizona, but where the hell in Colorado is that red blip from?
Am I mistaken, or does that big trail of red pretty much follow the Appalachians and Blue Hills?
