You did in the response directed to me. You sent the correction to yourself and I didn't see it until after I responded.
In fact, the current South is closer (politically) to what this country ought to be like than anywhere in the country.
We in the great plains and Rocky Mountain states might disagree with that. When four of the last six presidents have been Southerners and when many of the biggest pork-barrel congressmen and senators are Southerners then it's pretty clear that the South may talk a good game but in the end it's mostly talk.
I actually like the rural plains states and the Rocky Mountain areas. Really, not much difference in them than conservative folks in the South. The Southern politicians who are a problem have one thing in common - they are all liberals. However, most would agree that (in general) the South is the most conservative part of the country.
