1. I am in the land of Delta Blues

but we went red.

2. William Faulkner said "I love Mississippi, not for what it is but,

in spite of what it is."

There are plenty of enlightened people there. They're just not the majority, unfortunately.

4. Kerry won Shelby County

Harold Ford won reelection

3. Me too.

In some ways it's all so much the harder to understand. I think that is part of the problem that we really blue blue state people just don't get what the rest of the country is about.

5. core values

core values are just different and nothing is going to change that on either side.

The problem is that the 'live and let live' party lost and lost big.

we are now living in the country of the 'my way or the highway' crowd...
