Open Political Revolt In The Suburbs

As a geographer, I'm interested in any political analysis linked to the American landscape. Glenn Reynolds (Instapundit) has posted such an analysis by Joel Kotkin in the magazine, The American, published by the American Enterprise Institute. The opening sentence:

A year into the Obama administration, America's dominant geography, suburbia, is now in open revolt against an urban-centric regime.

Massachusetts voters have sent a huge message to democrats and Democrats from sea to shining sea. So far, the White House response doesn't give us much hope that they're listening to the voice of those who determine the political landscape. I am amazed by that, but not surprised.
