In order to understand what is happening, you have to understand politics.
Democrats did the right thing for the country, even though that meant siding with Bush. Republicans didn’t.
Guys, it’s actually very admirable of you to admit that you’re voting your pocketbooks.
Unfortunately, the majority of Republican voters in the heartland (or in Lakeside) don’t vote their pocketbooks. They vote on issues such as faith, abortion, gay marriage, etc…
As a progressive, I should be kinder but as far as I’m concerned, those “poor” Republican voters are simply hopeless. I say “let them eat cake”. But liberals have “bleeding hearts” and can’t do that.
I can understand people in Carmel Valley or La Jolla voting their pocketbooks but those Republican voters in rural Mississippi are simply dumb.
So FLU, as a well-to-do professional, you should be happy that idiots are born everyday.
