21256 [lbo-talk] Purists' Glee -- rank: 1000
Dennis Perrin wrote: >The country is indeed split along cultural lines 51% of the electorate voted for Bush, meaning that 49% didn't. About 37% of Americans are born-again Xtians, meaning that 63% aren't. If you look at the electoral-vote weighted map (which is, more or less, population-weighted), the country looks very divided between blue and red, though the area-weighted one looks preponderantly red. They want us to believe in that preponderance, and even the NYT is playing along. Doug

21258 [lbo-talk] leaving the USA -- rank: 1000
[from a gay-oriented list, but applicable to all] Immigrating from the land of your birth is a big step not to be taken lightly.

Here's a very useful web site that provides some valuable information: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/ For those of you who are real ...

21260 [lbo-talk] It wasn't about "moral values" -- rank: 1000

First off, if the exit polls were so inaccurate in >measuring who people voted for, why were they accurate in >measuring what motivated them? They weren't "so inaccurate" - they were off by a couple of points (and it may be that more Rs refused to talk to pollsters than Ds). So that wouldn't invalidate the general drift of the motivations.

Seth Ackerman wrote: >But people concerned about "morality" or "values" I think can be won.
