1. Don't it make your red state...

...don't it make your red state,
don't it make your red state blue?

[Wickerman]

2. That, as a graphic, is interesting.

Why is Iowa more blue than Minnesota and Wisconsin when Iowa went red and Minnesota and Wisconsin blue in 2004?

Why is Alabama still Red (cinnamon?) when even Florida is bluish?

Guess I should read the article, but that is one cool map.

3. Sigh... too bad so many Americans have to learn the hard way. nt

4. This really makes an impact when viewed

The colors say it all! It figures Oklahoma would still be gray. People here are SSSSSOOOOOOOOOO SSSSSLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. I'm just glad we're not still a shade of pink/red. Looking forward to turning blue soon - that will be a really bad sign for *.

5. It seems from the key that no state goes above 55%

Too bad this isn't October 2004.

Anyone know which state is demonstrating the biggest shift since Nov. 2004? Ohio maybe?

6. Sooo, that's what a mandate looks like.

The northeast sure do look purty.

Thanks for the map.

7. Big deal

I was in Columbus Ohio 2 weeks before the election.
Where was everyone else?
The only poll that mattered was Nov 2nd.

10. It was sarcasm, sorry, I thought it was obvious.

Hope your next vacation turns out better.

8. Sweet. Thanks for posting it.

9. Very pretty picture. 47 down and 3 to go!

[Fire Walk With Me]

11. Bush just doesn't care at all about polls, censure, or impeachment.

He and his "base" have made billions of dollars. If I had billions of dollars and had set up conditions to continue making billions, I wouldn't care one whit about what the people providing said billions think about.

Polls don't rewrite cronyist laws, but the direction is good.

12. But;, he might care about the Hague. (If we could ever get his

ass handed over to them.)

[NJ Democrats]

13. Love the way the North East looks.

[dusty64]

14. Its beautiful to

look at.

[Vidar]

15. Can't even hold S. Dakota? Let's make him president of Utah. Great map.

[Lisa]

16. is 55% the best he can do? In 3 states?!

That's still a "D" if you translate that into academic grading!

[July]

17. The details of those results are fascinating.

That 55% is in only one state, Utah. The others are below that level.

18. I'm particularly happy about Texas!

At this rate, Junior will be shopping for a new "ranch" outside Salt Lake City! (Actually, if the urban/rural split holds for that state, he'd better be looking a long way from SLC, since cities, even in traditionally "red" states, tend to be more liberal ...)
