This book is fabulous! The premise is that John Moe, NPR personality and life long Seattleite, decides to immerse himself fully in conservative culture, to see if he can convert himself in 30 days (think Super Size Me with Morgan Spurlock). In addition to being HILLARIOUS, this book was more profound than I expected. It explores culture and how complex it is, along with the complexity of being a "conservative" or a "liberal".
My favorite chapters were the one were he visits the Nixon library, the one where he goes to a Toby Keith concert in suburban Indianapolis and the conclusion, which takes place in South Lake Union.
It's a quick read, very funny and gives you something to think about.
