In the last Presidential election the heartland was colored all red

one vote more in each precinct? Or a landslide in the populated areas for the Dems?

The folk from the heartland who show up for a Victor Hanson talk hardly strike me as representative of it.
I wouldn't be so sure of that.

In the last Presidential election the heartland was colored all red. Only the two coasts and urban cities had any blue.


I don't recall the original context from which the Victor Hanson business was taken. Been several days now since I read all that. I thought Hanson was saying that support for Israel was strong in the heartland because he found it to be so at his talk. If that's the right source, then it's a classic Hanson stretch. Yet another reason not to take him seriously.
