In Virginia...
"'I think we ran into, frankly, Arlington backlash against national Republican politics,' Kelsey said of his loss. 'This year, more than ever, the Democrats were able to energize their voters. . . . It's frustrating. We ran a great campaign.'"
So two GOP states got more Republican, a Democratic state got more Democratic, and Democrats held on to what they already had and gained a bit more in a third Republican state.

A little something I wrote for the clean descent living christian white folk.
Might Makes False Prophets Right.
The Sword Was Praised Against The Heathen, By Those of Little Love;
The Holly Land’s Oil Greased The Wheels Of War As They Coveted Another Man’s Right;
Bearing False Witness Against the Heathen With Slurs Of their Holly Book’s Teachings Of Hate;
And 300 Times Denying Deuteronomy13:6-15 With Instructions To Destroy And Smite.
To Bring Forth The Fields Of Armageddon, Was Clearly In Their Sites;
For Such It Was Interpreted And So It Must be Right;
I Am Told To Understand That My Child Must Surely Die;
But That I Shall Be Blessed When From The Grave He Shall Arise.
I Do Though Understand That Only 1 Perfect Man Has Walked on Earth and HE Did So Instruct Us Of The Golden Rules To Observe.(Mark10:19)

A decline in family values. ROFLMAOtill death do us part
Atheists had the lowest average divorce rates (defined as the percentage of people who had been divorced at least once in their lives), at 21%. Christian divorce rates averaged about 24% (higher for "born-again" Christians, ie- fundamentalists, at 27%), and even higher for Jews, at 30%. They also collected racial and geographical data, which showed that the white Southern Baptist fundamentalists have no reason to crow about their "family values". Not only did the Southern Bible Belt have the highest divorce rate in the country, but whites as a race are the most likely to split: 27%, as compared to 22% for blacks, 20% for Hispanics, and only 8% for Asians
"Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction."

There is no reasoning with you.
You will not accept any criticism of anything against your current regime because you can’t.
You can’t because you won’t even question it.
Yeah Linda, ALL great folks down South, only the Arabs are evil.
Read all about White Suthun Praid CCC Council of Conservative Citizens
“Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott was a frequent speaker at its events; subsequent news accounts reported that several other elected officials in the South had appeared at the group's gatherings. Like its predecessor, the CCC inflames fears and resentments, particularly among Southern whites, with regard to black-on-white crime, nonwhite immigration, attacks on the Confederate flag and other issues related to "traditional" Southern culture. Although its leadership claims that the group is not racist, its publications, Web sites and actions all promote the purportedly innate superiority of white people and bias against nonwhites”
African Americans .. "an inherent deficiency in mental ability"
…….”advance a racist agenda from the grassroots to the senior levels of American government.”
Sure thing 12, and bear,
Tell me we have crimes in Australia too,,
The difference between me and you is that you’re cool with it.

“Cochran was once the fifth-ranking member of the Idaho-based Aryan Nations. As recruiter and spokesperson, he targeted young people in new communities. Cochran "defected" in 1992 after another member told him his own young son should be killed (since the boy's cleft palate made him "genetically inferior". “

austi -
Just to give you a few 'facts'.
The above votes, going the way they did, are unusual in KY because the democratic party has held the KY spot for close to 32 years. Now they've gone republican.
In the last 12 months the GOP has won governorship seats in 4 states that, for DECADES, have been dominated by democrats. [GA., Maryland, Hawaii & KY].
And a quote from the WSJ this morning:
So much for the notion that the California recall of Gray Davis presaged a national revolt against incumbents.
Republicans have good reason to whistle Dixie. They picked up two more statehouses down South and are leading in Louisiana's runoff next week. The victories in Mississippi and Kentucky come on the heels of gubernatorial wins last year in Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina.
If the GOP prevails in Louisiana, it will hold nine of 12 Southern statehouses and 29 nationwide. Sixty percent of Americans soon will live in states run by Republicans.
So, as I'm sure you can see the 'Bible Belt' has been run by Democrats too, but that trend appears to be changing.
