I can't believe that Arkansas (home state of Bill Clinton), Tennessee (home state of Al Gore), and West Virginia (strongly Democratic until the 2000 election) are the same color as Mississippi (home state of Trent Lott) and Alabama (home state of Roy Moore).

I can't believe that Virginia (which no Democratic nominee has carried since 1964) is MUCH more pro-choice than West Virginia and is the same color as Illinois.  I also can't believe that Georgia (home state of Zell "the Duel" Miller), Florida (home state of Jeb Bush), Texas (home state of W and Rick Perry), Kansas (the state with something the matter with it), Wyoming (only  Idaho and Utah are more heavily Republican) are also the same color as Illinois.  I also can't believe that Nevada and Colorado are the same color as Massachusetts, the state with abortion clinics at every street corner.  (Hey, the Republican Attack Machine says so, so it must be true!)

Don't knock anybody up, Harry, unless you're ready for a 300 mile drive in any direction in order to get it taken care of.

I'm more liberal than Harry on social issues, but I don't believe in premarital sex.  I've actually had people mistake me for a conservative.  (Hmmm, I'd be a great ideological secret agent.  My vice is gluttony.  If you count up the number of times I drank eggnog, ate pie, ate hash browns, ate ice cream, or ate anything else containing lots of fat or sugar, the total dwarfs the number of times James Bond has had wild, orgasmic sex with a beautiful woman.)
