As a special service to all those GOP trolls and lurkers out there, this recurring feature will highlight the shifting centers of the incredible shrinking GOP universe. The center of the GOP universe is any city or town that is equidistantly as far as possible from the nearest blue states. So follow along in the weeks ahead! It's fun geography and you'll learn about new places--new places to avoid, or to target for future Progressive expansion--in this great country of ours.
Although today's center of the GOP universe is still holding, I am confident that Governor Schweitzer, Senator Tester, Senator Baucus, and all the other fine democrats throughout the state of Montana will soon gleefully re-center it somewhere down Salt Lake City way. But for now:
Today's center of the GOP Universe: HARDIN, MONTANA
