Another Red/Blue Divide?

At last week's debate Joe Lieberman declared that "It hasn't been a good time to have a cowboy in charge of our future."

He said that as if being a cowboy was a bad thing. But he isn't alone, many on the left here and in Europe deride Bush as a cowboy.

But check out this list of popular movie stars. John Wayne is still in the top 10. So is Eastwood. Clearly, in much of the country, being called a cowboy is going to make the President look good. I wonder if Lieberman, Kerry, Dean and their staffs understand that?

Or do they think everyone would rather watch The Hours rather than High Plains Drifter?
