By god, you're right! I admit, my experience with West Virginia is limited to reruns of <i>Deliverance</i>, and the occasional news story about some evil fuckers imprisoning and torturing a black woman in a trailer home.

West Virginia was actually separated from Virginia either during or after the Civil War in exchange for not supporting the Confederacy, so the Confederate flag bit is not so accurate. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Politics_of_West_Virginia Apparently a conservative leaning swing-state that identifies more with Pittsburgh (Democratic) than Appalachia. Both senators and 2/3 of representatives are Democratic. Happy Hating!
