187. That's something I expect to see in the Southeaster USA...but NOT New England States..

Fri Sep 28, 2012, 06:23 PM

Sep 2012

What has happened there. I lived in NYC, NYS, CT, NJ.......what is going on?

I grew up in SC and got the hell out of there as fast as I could in my early 20's......and unfortunately ended up back in the Southeast for my "older years" because the job growth was here....But, WHAT HAPPENED since I left the Northeast in the early 90's?

There can't be the Religious Fundie Church influence that the Southeast has had. Church was always important for indentity growing up in the South...but not when I lived in Manhattan, CT or New Jersey (although there was a bit of fundie religion starting there and had been there..but, I live just outside of Princeton)

I don't understand it. I can't imagine that area of the US putting up something like that against Elizabeth Warren. WHY?
