ya know. that used to drive me crazy when i lived in ohio too! my favorite come back was by my best friend from high school...
she was on a bus from ohio to jersey.. and the jersey girl asked something about living with corn and cows. so tina responded, "is new jersey really dirty and smelly?"
it's fine to use generalizations to understand people as a whole, like in psychology, sociology, & anthropology. but to use it negatively to attack, it's just wrong.
side note, i still love ohio. it'll ALWAYS have a special place in my heart! (cows, corn, racists and all!)
I honestly didn't think Obama would win. Because there are an awful, awful lot of idiot rednecks out there. I figured between those people and the ones with legitimate reasons for voting for other candidates, he didn't stand a chance of actually winning, though I did figure he'd make a good showing...probably 30-40%.
