I lived in Bloomington. I live a lot closer to those counties than you do and I've probably been there more times than you have. However, if you go outside of any metro area (Louisville, Indy, Chicago) in Indiana it's red. So there's no distinction between Southern Indiana and Northern Indiana's rural parts in regards to voting behaviors; however, you felt the need to single out Southern Indiana, which has just as many democrats in D.C. as northwest or other rural parts. So once again, B.S. I know Southern Indiana, born and raised as well. As someone who has lived here his whole life, I think I would have a better idea of what is going on here than someone in central Indiana. I believe you were wrong about generalizing Southern Indiana as REDNECK USA, when it consistently goes dem in a a majority of Washignton races (just not the presidential, which is normally within a %10-15 difference) but that's just my 2 cents.

Try going through highway 150 (Paoli) or 37 (Salem) and you'll meet a lot of dems, and a lot reps. I drive those routes every week.
