Jim - giddy articles all over Boston newspapers, headlines like "Republican revolution fails in Mass".
The "why" to your question is branding. The Dems have succesfully branded themselves as the owners of civil rights and the advocates for the middle class. Repubs have been branded as corporate sell outs and slaves of the rich. People also think Bush=Republican and the story ends there.
Its really that simple. I've had major arguments with liberal friends and they always say - you make a lot of great points, those are strong arguments. But they cannot get over their wrath of bush, fox news, and sarah palin.
