Maps of the day

2010 Post-Election Party Control of State Legislatures:

This map shows control of state legislatures after the Nov. 2, 2010, election. There were 6,115 seats in 46 states up for election of a total 7,382 state legislative seats.

Oregon results are now completed and our legislature is evenly divided. We should be yellow on the map.

When I lived in San Francisco, I drove across the US 6 times and, each time I did so, I was told to be careful of the bible-thumping rednecks as soon as I crossed the Oakland Bridge. Talk about insular.

The world according to San Francisco:

From Fred Thompson's blog, Fred08 on November 26th, 2007:

More Praise for Fred’s Tax Relief Plan - Patrick Joubert Conlon at Born Again Redneck called the plan, “music to a businessman’s ears.”

C.D. Jewell,

Liberalstein,

"This blog interested me first because of the title. But the quality of Patrick Joubert Conlon's writing has kept me coming back. His style is not presumptuous or pompous or condescending; it's plain and simple. Good old American English. Which is funny because Mr. Conlon was born and lived in South Africa for his first twenty one years and after that spent eight years in England before finding his home here in the U. S. His blog provides a rare outsider/insider perspective on the U. S. of A. He's been linked to by CNN on a couple of occasions and one of his posts was cited by the official Fred08 website. He does a lot of politics but also some lighter fare as well. He frequently posts spectacular photos taken on his Oregon farm."
