multipart series...telling us what the right doesnt want us to know.

The only problem with your characterization is a lefty is more likely
to be rich. The blue counties are certainly richer than the red ones.

That's right. The general population of blue states are better off than
those in the red states. This, I suppose, is a bad thing... that under
Democrat leadership, people tend to prosper.


Lawyers, doctors, insurance companies and government workers do a
whole lot better.


Sheesh, thought they had all those folks in Red states too.


Not as many and not as rich


Wow... I think you need to do more research!
