#4 Raptor: I assumed that when he said at a dude ranch in western Michigan that it might have meant the red state was Michigan... :-)

I went to a couple of these rodeos when I grew up there... lots of fun, and all the seats were good!

#5 I assumed the Red State was Massachusetts...

#6 No, Massachusetts is a Blue State, it's just they keep electing Reds to the U.S. Senate. One of the reasons I left.

#9 Um, hate to tell you folks, but Michigan was actually a blue state in the last election (that is, it went for Gore). We also elected a Dem. governor. But west Michigan, where I live, is solidly in red territory.

#10 How did the Democrats become Blue when have of them are Reds. How did they get the term Liberal when the classical version of the term applies to Conservatives far more than the current Democrats. Everything is upside down.

#12 Sorry, should have made clear that the dude ranch and rodeo are in Rothbury, Michigan. Great area, good people, real salt of the earth types.

MW, you nearby?

And all the seats were good, as was the beer.
