Isn't red a pretty color?

I always find these maps interesting. Not so much the fact that it’s mostly red. It just illustrates the difference in lifestyles of Americans. Those blobs of blue on each coast represent probably 90% of the votes for Kerry. You quickly come to a realization that as much as liberals want to think that the country is bitterly divided, it’s really just the two densely populated coasts where liberal ideas are prominent. The rest of the country has very different ideas of what are important in our lives.
Anyhoo, I just wanted to share this cool map.

Cool map, where did you get it?
I’ve always been curious about why people in cities tend to be liberal while people in the country tend to be conservative. Any ideas?
I don’t really know why it would be since I can’t even explained why I am so liberal. I have never lived in a city bigger than Bowling Green.
