All you guys in the red states - thanks. Being in NY, my vote does little. I make up for it by being active in the NRA but nothing is a good as a vote. Feeling real good wearing my W hat on the subway....getting a lot of dirty looks. I love it.

Great job getting the word out.

sar,
Living in NJ and working in NYC, I feel your pain.

Thanks, red-staters!

[RandyB]

Your welcome from the Hoosier state. Though I would politely disagree with your vote not counting. Your vote was one of millions that we can throw in the Democrats face that Bush won by electorial AND by popular vote. :D

[Mick]

You're welcome from the RED state of Ohio!

[Ozendorph]

Agreed, much thanks from the PRC :)

(hey, at least my County was red ;) )

[perry1963]

Another thanks to the red states from california.

[pignock]

thanks from ILLinois too

[alarmguy]

We had to dig in hard, but finally pulled Ohio to Red for ya.

[R.H. Lee]

Ditto that thanks! Although my county did vote Bush/Cheney.

Thanks from Hawaii :)

[Jackthelad]

You're welcome from the Akron/Cleveland area! Quite a few sour faces today, but the W fans proved what gracious winners they are. Why are the dems so mean around here?

[Turkey Creek]

You're welcome from Missouri- first time in 85 years I believe Mo has a Republican Govenor and both houses-

[Dan the Man]

You're welcome from the great state of Texas. And in addition, after a fierce re-districting battle earlier, we can offer up four new Republican representatives as well.

Regards to All
--Dan

You are welcome from Kansas.So, can we have less Dorothy and Toto jokes now...?:)

[NoLibs]

I feel your pain here in WA. Apparantly,though, here in Clark County we went Bush.
I'm still awaiting word on our Gov race. Last I heard the Rep. Dino Rossi is leading. He'd be the 1st GOP gov in 24.years. >fingers crossed<

Isn't it ironic that the socialists and communists get to be blue? Why is that?
Maybe its because the Republicans are more likely to shed our blood for the country....but who knows.

Keep fighting the good fight

I think the colors were switched in the 2000 election.

I think it was because the networks didn't want Al (I Invented The Internet) Gore associated with the color red which
might remind people of Communism.

[Bridger]

Thanks from me too, being a NY stater and NYC college student. At least my vote helped the popular vote!

[Nathaniel Firethorn]

Thanks to the red states from PRNJ, the most corrupt and rights-hostile state that hasn't yet been thrown out of the Union. Hope GWB can do some good for those of us here who supported him.

Thanks from Michigan.

However, candidates friendly to RKBA were the winners locally for me with Knollenberg returning the House and Gosselin going to the State House.

[ReadyontheRight]

Thanks from the Nanny State of Minnesota! (People's Republic in Training)

[R.H. Lee]

Intune referenced this link in another thread. It's instructive, I think:

From the heart of Los Angeles, PRK thanks everyone!

[charby]

Thanks from Iowa, even though it won't be known until next week who won the state.

RileyMC, that's an interesting map.

Any idea why the blue line down the middle of CO and NM?

- pdmoderator

[R.H. Lee]

I don't know about CO, but isn't Northern NM where Taos and Santa Fe are? Those are liberal enclaves, I believe. There also may be a large Native American population there. Northern AZ has Sedona and environs, kind of a high $$ hippie/new age area.

[Nathaniel Firethorn]

Also, there's a smile-shaped swath of blue through the deep South. :confused:

Sherman's March remnants?
