Some of my favorites are when the person in a red state posts a picture of their state, and then points proudly to the itty bitty, teeny tiny blue county. "That's MY county," they say proudly.

I went over to look at the livejournal blog of a Texas college girl I stumbled on a while back. She likes old photos, comics, drawing cartoons, being a geek, and asking if dead people from history are "hot or not."

And bless her Texas heart, she also voted Kerry. Her after-election entry had a picture she'd drawn of herself leaving the planet, saying fuck you with both her hands in both American and British.

The next day she had a post about it being okay to be sad today, but that tomorrow it was education time. "We now know exactly where half the country need educating. Let's use that as a positive, shall we?"

The youth are coming up, and they are more political than the youth have been in decades. We've just done the 1968 routine. Look out for "1972." Lefties will abound.
