Well done Oklahoma, maybe the only solidly red state. Not even Native American reservations from what I can see, probably pulled some blue out in places like Utah.

Interesting that you should point out Oklahoma; Rush was speaking about this just this afternoon. He said he wondered a few things about Oklahoma......do they allow early voting, can you register and vote the same day, do you need to show ID to vote, etc. etc.

Turns out.......he and/or his staff did a little homework and found that yes, they do allow early voting......but the Friday before the election, NOT 30+ days prior. You can not register when you are within 24 days.....not hours, days....of the election. Also, you must show your voter ID to actually vote.

His larger point was well made and well taken; the electoral process in much of this country is totally, completely compromised. That is precisely how Obama managed to get elected....and probably how Al Franken (for example) is going to steal the Senate race in MN in broad daylight, under public scrutiny.

No one in authority gives a damn any more. We’ve become a Third World country to a large degree, and it sickens me.

The American Indians in Oklahoma (yes, in OK that’s what they prefer to be called) tend to be more suspicious of government largess than are Native Americans anywhere else in the Lower 48. Considering why their ancestors ended up in OK, it seems natural. (Which reminds me, can’t we get Jackson off of our money, but I digress.)

Native Alaskans also tend to be suspicious, esp. the Orthodox Christians, since until the 1963 no-school-prayer ruling, they were persecuted by Federal government programs aimed at forcible conversion to protestantism.

Actually the areas of Utah shown as blue are definitely demoncrat - the upper blue is around Park City and the middle right is the Moab area. Both areas have been taken over by the unwashed post 1960’s hipsters. They are effectively ruining those tourist areas for the rest of us.

Thanks. We don’t have Indian reservations - our Indians live and work and go to school among us, although some do live in Indian housing within our cities and towns.
