Just because they are red states doesn't mean they aren't full of folks who are on the government dole, who do, in fact, vote for the guy who promises them more stuff from everyone else. What it does mean is that the rest of us show up in force because we know we have to counter that vote. I've lived in 3 of those states and I can tell you its the same in all three.
