but we also had a history of voting for 'liberal' Republican senators - Hugh Scott (one of the Republican senators that went to the White House and told 'Tricky Dicky' that he's be impeached if he didn't resign)((Oh, and what 'Republican' went to tell tRump the same?)) - and John Heinz, a 'liberal' Republican who was killed in a helicopter crash.

But yes, we DID have a reputation of being a good, blue-collar DEMOCRATIC state.

But then again, that was back when 'CORPORATIONS' were not 'PEOPLE!'
