prague

A beautiful city in Central Europe with a long history that has sadly become a tourist trap

In the early '90s, after the fall of Communism, Prague was the place to be, now its a magnet for football hooligans on a cheap holiday

ohio

A state that is a microcosm of the Eastern U.S. Although usually considered to be part of the Midwest, the northeastern part of the state seems more like the Northeast and the southern part of the state might as well be the South. Known for cultural diversity and corrupt government (e.g. the 2004 elections). Ohio like its neighboring Great Lakes states suffered more than anywhere else in the US from the deindustrialization and bad economic policies of the Reagan years and the ensuing globalization ever since, and is still suffering greatly.

Considering how Republicans have continually fucked up Ohio, I don't know why anyone who lives in the state votes GOP.

soccer mom

Contrary to what one would think a soccer mom is not the equivalent of an older football groupie outside North America. They may have secret fantasies about Becks but the name comes from driving their kids to soccer practice in their SUVs or minivans. They are almost always upper middle class or upper class and usually white. They tend to be paranoid about any sort of sex, drugs, smoking, or obscene content in movies or music. Politically speaking they're usually Republicans (although not usually religious right type Repubs, they tend more towards being Giuliani/Bloomberg/Arnold type GOPers) in red areas or they're DLC-type Dems ((i.e. Joe Lieberman, Hillary Clinton) in Dem areas. They usually live in suburbs or exurbs although there are some that live in urban areas.

You know this area changed once the soccer moms moved in and they're trying to close down all the bars and nightclubs because they're scared about their kids.

the real Venice died years ago, it's become a yuppie tourist trap
