Obviously never been to Clearfield County, have you?
Perhaps I should elaborate, while we do tend to lean stongly for the Republicans in national elections, the county council is made up of one liberal democrat, one moderate democrat and one conservative republican. Bud George, who represents the state house district that is basically just Clearfield County (minus DuBois) is a Left-of-center Democrat. The state rep who represents DuBois, Dan Surra, is a liberal Democrat. The top judge for the county is also a liberal democrat, while the associate judge is a Republican.
Clearfield County also has two papers, the Clearfield Progress and the DuBois Courier, each have about equal circulation. The Progress is generally right-leaning in its editorial section, though they endorsed Clinton in 1992. The Courier is strongly anti-Bush and anti-Republican in its editorial section, the guy who owns it Denny Bonivito has expressed his hatred of Bush several times in public and in the paper.
