Mr. Khan, do you still live up in the northeast? Curious, because I wonder where you get a lot of opinions on the South from. That bit of background data would help me understand your point of view better here.

Pennsylvania.

And i do know it's better down there than the caricatures would lead us to believe, that the South has become less distinct due to Sunbelt migration and the general process of cultural osmosis, though i would posit that the proof is in the legislation as to what kind of ideas are floating around in political circles down there, as well as the elected officials, where you vote for folks like Rick Perry and Jan Brewer.

Edit: though i'll grant that we in PA voted for Tom Corbett (who is suing the NCAA *in protest* of the Sandusky Penalties for Penn State, just to placate Nittany Lions football fans and cover his own ass as a Penn State Trustee)

Oddly, i think I got a "cleaner" view of the modern south from watching King of The Hill, which showed suburban Texas as basically the same as the rest of America, just with a helluva lot more focus given to high school football.

I appreciate the pretty honest response. I would say you don't really know what's going on down here (with such a large difference of cultures just across state lines), until you come and experience it for yourself.
