Strength in Numbers
An interesting fact pointed out by Patrick Ruffini:
The number of people (over 60 million) who voted for Bush, is larger than the entire population of France.
One is almost moved to exclaim, "and we're dealing with these people?!?"
Some more random facts I thought I'd throw in:
The entire population of the United States -- all 293 million of us -- could move to Alaska, leaving the "lower 48" (plus Hawaii) completely empty, and we'd still have less than 3/4 the population density of Great Britain!
Pennsylvania -- only the 33rd largest State! -- is larger in area than the former East Germany.
Kind of puts things in perspective.
