We'll have to have some more political discussions in the future. I don't break out singing to the choir very often in my nerdy political speak; usually because I think A) people either don't care or, B) they will get turned off.<BR/><BR/>Way too long of a comment.

My first thought ...I got all kinds of hope though. My first thought is that question was worded to draw numbers, not a representative response. The other is that Pennsylvania (a state that I completely love btw) is a very diverse place. Demographics that you'd expect to see somewhere like Texas and even in places like the Bronx. Democrats there come in all kinds of flavors, including truly working class folks. If a purple state like that with a stacked question only hits 12% I of course with it were 0% but I still think that's a good thing. A generation ago or two generations ago think what that number would have been, and think what it will be two generations from now (especially after Barak wins).Andrew Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18404288153027072377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17807918.post-37690941379311444332008-04-28T14:17:00.000-06:002008-04-28T14:17:00.000-06:00well said on all of it Andy - really. i just diff...well said on all of it Andy - really. i just differ with you on the 12% of those PA dems who wouldn't vote for Barak because he's a man of color. Even though it's not the divisive number that 68% is, it's still a sad statement on our society. That race even matters at all - that we haven't overcome all those -isms is just sad, and angering. But this comment shouldn't surprise you coming from me.<BR/><BR/>Anyhow - I'm glad someone with a thoughtful mind is watching the debates for those of us who don't. I'm not watching because I'd probably get angry, and then have to go out and work on the campaigns - which would give me yet another reason to procrastinate from working.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
