A chilling reminder of why we need to keep fighting - their hit list now includes anywhere that didn't vote for them: The Clintonian View of Middle America Although Bush and Gore got nearly the same number of votes nationwide, Gore's support was concentrated in big cities, while Bush won rural America. The result, shown on this county-by-county map, with Bush counties in red and Gore counties in blue, is that Bush carried the overwhelming bulk of America's land mass. Former Clinton consultant Paul Begala, now an MSNBC commentator, had this to say about the map: Tens of millions of good people in Middle America voted Republican. But if you look closely at that map you see a more complex picture. You see the state where James Byrd was lynch-dragged behind a pickup truck until his body came apart--it's red. You see the state where Matthew Shepard was crucified on a split-rail fence for the crime of being gay--it's red. You see the state where right-wing extremists blew up a federal office building and murdered scores of federal employees--it's red. The state where an Army private who was thought to be gay was bludgeoned to death with a baseball bat, and the state where neo-Nazi skinheads murdered two African-Americans because of their skin color, and the state where Bob Jones University spews its anti-Catholic bigotry: they're all red too. opinionjournal.com
