Now, I know you're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, let alone its advertising campaign. But it seems like Sperling's main point is the same as the one made by Thomas Frank in What's The Matter With Kansas? Basically, the difference between Red states and Blue states is cultural. Republicans win votes by exploiting cultural differences and downplaying their divisive economic agenda. I wasn't persuaded last time around (nor was Matt Yglesias), but who knows? Maybe Sperling can express himself better than Thomas Frank. (0) opinions -- Add your opinion
