Although it's not going to go Democratic any time soon, the Republicans don't have as strong a hold on it as you might assume. My Republican-voting relatives in that district think the war is a mistake (their children are fighting there,) they think the Republican party favors the rich and screws the poor, and they think Bush is a moron for wanting to dismantle Social Security. If we spent time trying to focus on these issues and draw attention away from abortion and gay marriage, we could start to pull over this area. Even if it would take a generation to swing the district, just cutting into the Republican majority there will swing statewide elections our way.David Holthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429537841871750849noreply@blogger.com
