I live in an exurb-y kind of location. I can tell you why they're moving here. They can't even afford a 2 bedroom condo on a loud street in Chicago, but here they can afford to buy a two story home with some land around it, a nice yard for the kids to play in, maybe have a dog and a garden. They're largely blue collar workers or people struggling on the way up. They voted for Bush this time not because they like his economic policies, but because they were scared and because they were never able to really get a handle on Kerry. Hell, they're two paychecks away from being uninsured 4 away from being homeless and they know it. The Democratic platform is what they want, but they don't know what it is. All they heard was War War War Swift Boats War Terror Terror Be Afraid Be Afraid Osama Osama Swift Boats.
