Not fer nuthin, but it might do some of us a bit of good to spend some time in the red states vs the blue areas. I just got finished doing some seminars in the Southeast (Dallas, Jacksonville, Huntsville, Birmingham to name a few, hence my absence for a couple of weeks). There were very few places I went, whether it be restaurants or even malls, where conversations would not include the name of Jesus a number of times, all in a reverent manner. Religion is a big part of the lifestyle down there, and not a "made up" rationale by the media. Haven't found that in the Southwest red states yet. Different mindset. More independent.

Just an interesting observation.

BTW...Weather in Birmingham is AWFUL!! Been there four times in the past three years and (probably all bad timing) haven't seen the sun once, but have seen a tornado and thunderstorms that made me want to crawl under the bed!!
