Sanity Rally

Josh Marshall of Talking Points Memo sums up Jon Stewart's "Restore Sanity" fairly well thus far, politically:

"Somehow this seems about right. Red America shows up for a raucous, passionate, blunt rally on the mall. Blue America shows up for a tongue-n-cheek, ironic, humor-based rally on the mall with no explicit reference to an authoritarian, fear-based society but a comedian in character who makes the point indirectly."

Yet, I suspect among most rational Americans (even those living in "flyover country"), the divide between Red and Blue is not as great as it often portrayed.
