Well I wouldn't blame any particular person for this, but its really unfortunate that this issue cam to a head when it did.

It brought "cultural conservatives" out in record numbers.

Sugar and spice was right in a comment she made before about it being hard for many of us to empathatically relate to regions of the country that vote based on "moral issues".


Right after the election Peter Jennings was asking how the media could have missed this, and the reply was that the media is generally based in metropolitan areas and doesn't interact daily with people that love nascar, and own pick-ups and guns.

I'll take that a step farther and say its extremely hard for me to relate with people that worship high school football stars and create multi million dollar stadiums for their teams.

And yet these are the regions of the nation and the people that GW swept.

I'm going to have to process that.
