A MASS. EXODUS: I was surprised to read in Bernadette Malone's column (via Brothers Judd)that Massachusetts transplants were actually the New Hampshire voters most likely to cast their ballots for Bush. It had long been suspected that Bay State tax refugees wanted to continue the level of government services they were accustomed to and were therefore held responsible for recent Democratic gains in the Granite State.

Orrin Judd certainly makes a good point as to why we should have always taken this conventional wisdom with a grain of salt: "No one climbed over the Wall because they supported Erich Honecker."
