People's Choice
Michael Moore has won an award for the best coordinated internet campaign to stuff online ballot boxes. Mr. Moore would personally like to thank all the script kiddies over at DU for making this possible.
Just kidding! I'm not going to pull a Babs Boxer and bitch and whine just because a vote was won by someone I don't like. (I'm not good at those crocodile tears either.) Michael Moore won fair and square. "Fahrenheit 9/11" was a huge success for him, and from the looks of the publicity photo I saw, he's already able to to afford better clothes.
But can someone explain something to me? I keep hearing the dual wins by Michael Moore and Mel Gibson reported as indicative of the red state/blue state divide in this country. Granted I never saw the movie myself, but I have a pretty clear idea as to what it's about -- so can someone explain why "The Passion" is a Republican movie?
Comments
I think it is just because more Republicans than Democrats indentify themselves as "strongly religious", and Mel Gibson's movie supposedly is a very pro-Christ kind of film. {I haven't seen it either.}
