Re: Susan, #31:

I live right in the belly of the beast – the San Francisco Bay Area. I am an Ivy-League educated college professor. Yet my values and worldview resonate much more with what is most characteristic of the South and the rural/semi-rural areas of the US. I have never lived in a small town. I have never lived anywhere but on one of the Coasts, yet I am a fly-over country kind of guy. So are any number of my friends. I cling bitterly to my religion : )

The country is not nearly as homogenous as the pundits assume- and as you point out – even in the bluest parts of the bluest states.
