a gay, pedophilic, coke-snorting US Senator from Wisconsin who ruined the lives of countless numbers of Americans in his paranoid witch-hunt against alleged Communists and who severely damaged the American political system until he was brought down. Inexplicably, right wing authors like Ann Coulter are trying to rehabilitate his reputation
Joseph McCarthy played upon people's fears of communism to advance his own political career and in the process corrupted American democracy

Mostly Muslim immigrants (although some of them are Christians, Jews, and Bahais) from Iran and their kids living in wealthy parts of Southern California such as Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Brentwood and Sherman Oaks, they generally have materialistic values and an ugly sounding language but they don't really bother anyone for the most part, they're one of the wealthiest immigrant groups in the USA along with the Cubans. The California Persians have a very similar attitude and political orientation to the Florida Cubans. Due to Iran having such a nasty government and being so hated in the USA they regard themselves as Persians not Iranians

The Don Quixote of British politics. Far left wing MP (he was kicked out of Labour for his near-Trotskyist views and started his own party RESPECT), radio talk show host, and occasional reality show contestant. He's been attached to some rather shady dealings in the past and is openly pro-Arab and anti-Zionist. He's a bit of a whack job but charismatic and gutsy as all hell. In looks and charisma he's comparable to Sean Connery although Connery's political views are far different. While I wouldn't vote for him if I lived in his constituency he is a good example of a loveable, entertaining loony and I do have a certain respect for him.
As George Galloway always tells the many Jews who call up his radio show, he is not an antisemite even though he is certainly anti-Israel.

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.
