I don't come here very often, and this may even be the first time I've diaried here, but my thoughts are site-specific, I think, and, well, indulge me a minute here, 'cause it won't take long.

What I want to talk about is those two little maps in the upper right and upper left corners of the MyDD home page.

I think they've been the same since they went up, and that's a huge problem in my book, because they show John McCain winning the 2008 presidential election.

We have George W. Bush, with a sub-30% approval rating, yet we don't have a wave across the nation of people wanting a Democrat in the White House in 2008? WTF???

Why is this the case? What the hell have we done wrong? And more importantly, how are we going to change these maps?
