...all red-state residents are ignorant, racist, fascist, knuckle-dragging, NASCAR-obsessed, cousin-marrying, roadkill-eating, tobacco juice-dribbling, gun-fondling, religious-fanatic rednecks...

Welcome, Blue Staters!

Welcome to the Blue State of Mind!

Hello. If you clicked here you've identified yourself with the Blue State Voters of America. Now, the question is: Why do those people vote Red/Republican/conservative???

Who are these people? Where do they live? Why do they live there? What kind of lifestyles do they choose? What's with the guns and the religion? Why do they vote the way they do?

Help us out here!

The various "theories" are quite interesting...
