RedditSOME RED, BUT TRUE BLUE
Bozeman, Mont.
In "Morality Gets a Massage," your May 28 editorial criticizing the Administration's focus on abstinence over AIDS prevention, you proclaim, "Nine states have now turned down the tempting pot of abstinence money, including 'red state' Montana." Montana has two Democratic US senators. Our governor and four or five statewide elected officials are Democrats. The State Senate (26 to 24) is Democratic. Montana's secretary of state, State House of Representatives (50 to 49) and US House member are Republican. Color us purple (deep purple) if you wish. Red we ain't.
