As someone who was born and raised in Western PA, I can tell you what Obama sees as character flaws (e.g., gun-toting, clinging to religion) are bedrock American values there. A lot of those guns put meat on the table during hard times, and religion puts a foundation to daily life that a lot of politicians can't begin to fathom. I've seen families go through the boom and bust of Big Steel and Big Coal, yearly spring floods from the Ohio River and its small tributaries that wipe out homes and small, family farms. All this before Uncle Sam was there to dole out the aide that elitist Obama now thinks grows on trees. Midwesterners still know how to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps, but it's a fast disappearing skill in this ever encroaching nanny statism mindset that Obama (and all too many conservatives) want to transform into law. Let's hope Pennsylvanians haven't changed too drastically since I left. If Col. Russell can oust Murtha, that will help provide a firewall in Congress no matter who wins the presidency.
