Reply #3: I used to live in Central Florida

[tavalon]

But just to let you know how long ago that was, Florida was full of Dixiecrats, a distinction from Democrats that I didn't know anything about until many years later. My grandfather took me to the polls when I was eighteen and told me to "just pull the Democratic lever". It's hard to imagine, but fairly indisputable, that my grandparents, were they alive today, would be Republicans.
