<<Speaking of inbreds, I wonder if that's not just another case of "projection" - at least from one heavily blue area.>>

Nothing but us inbreds in the flyover area, but then again us yokels know who our parents are. Ya know when we ain't scratching our butts and feeding the nation some of us inbreds have accomplished a few things. We do make a few autos and tires. A little nooclear research at the Fermi Lab. Two major aircraft makers. One little insurance company here just started a bank with more assets than Manny Hanny. We also make a few things that have John Deere and Caterpillar painted on them. Just a bunch of worthless crap.

OTOH the blue areas have given the US the great gift of AIDS.

Hello
I was quoting Oral's own language on inbreds...

But I guess you didn't notice I just cut and pasted Oral's own language....

nope

guess not

Inbred isn't a word I use. But maybe this is one of those "PC" areas- where only a certain group of people get to call themselves inbred- and no one else is allowed to pick up the term from their posts. yup. Must be one of those PC things- like the "N" word.

I don't think there really is an answer to the "stupid voter" problem. Perhaps the answer is that I leave and go live in one of the more liberal nations

Well aren't you just an arrogant son of a gun. You could leave I guess but I would prefer you don't. Your parties arrogance will insure you continue losing seats for many cycles to come. Us inbreds in the middle of the country aren't nearly as stupid as you folks would like to think."
