Delegate Kristen J. Amundson (D-44) Needs To Explain

Delegate Kristen J. Amundson (D-44) blog 7 West has this post today:

Kenton, the prodigy of Virginia bloggers, is at it again. This time, he has posted a map of Virginia's predominant religions by county.

Take a look. Never again will you ask us, "Why DO those downstate folks vote that way?"

I think she needs to explain what she is implying. One commenter had this to say:

Excuse me Delegate, but what exactly are you saying?

I live "downstate" and am an active Democrat but I get a very uneasy feeling from your post that you are somehow looking down at us because of the religious composition of our citizens.

I would appreciate it if you would clarify your statement for me.

This looks a lot like bigotry to me. I would like to hear her explain this statement. Everyone should. If this had been a Republican from "downstate" the toupee's would be flying. I am not holding my breath for a lefty blog to question her statement. We in the blogoshere have long understood that moral outrage only works one way.
