I'm a Westerner; born in CO, never lived east of Houston and most of my life in CA (and most of that in the conservative parts of CA). Calling Chicago "the East" and Obama an "Easterner" sounded stupid to me when I first read the remark, and sounds more and more stupid each time I read you trying to back it up (kinda like the Bush Administration insisting there really are WMD in Iraq). <BR/><BR/>There is, you know, the great middle part of the country, neither east nor west? Or is that too much nuance for your conservative psyche?<BR/><BR/>McCain's still scrambling to try to pull together the GOP base and get their support--long, long, long after that should have been set in concrete.<BR/><BR/>Oregon's polls are flirting with only a small margin for Obama? Gee, Virginia's polls are too. That bodes real well for McCain.ogrehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15910505029382522110noreply@blogger.com
