The American cultural divide is Urban-Rural

Over at the Carpetbagger Report Ed Stephan guest-blogs and explains what the real divide in America is. Democrats are the party of the city-dwellers, who are tolerant of many things where Republicans are the rural party of hate and intolernce.

Remember that the word "civilization" means "Of the City." Remember also that the U.S. is becomeing rapidly more Urban and less Rural. The trend is in the favor of the Democrats - if they can just get their act organized and start dealing with the conservative movement effectively.

For a good read, click through and enjoy Ed's graphs and explanation.
