Once Again I'm Stuck In A Battleground State
As if the election wasn't bad enough, Instapundit links to a map that shows that, once again just how divided my poor state is.

While there are some kids down in Texas or out in California that have never heard refreshing non-alcoholic liquid beverages called anything but coke or soda, I grew up on the front lines. As you can see, Wisconsin is nearly divided in half between those who call it pop (me) and those in the eastern part of the state who call it "soda" (freaks).
Looking at that map, I'm also struck by the fact that Democrats seemed to take most of the soda states, while Republicans dominated in the coke and pop states. In any case, I'm far more entertained by this than by any of the blue state and red state bashing.

correction: kris inadvertantly mislabeled the 'pop' people and 'soda' accolades.. the 'pop' culture is the freak group.. the enlightened 'soda' populace is normal
now, how about a "bubbler" map? |
