Why I'm voting democrat :)

[Rhylan]

Here's the thing about rednecks..

A lot of people think that they tend to vote Republican because of the social conservative angle, and it's true that the Republican party has played that up for the last 20 years... but you know what?

Rednecks really don't like the government telling them what to do.

If you peeled away all of the social agendas of both sides and got down to the guiding principles of each party relative to what they do or don't want government to do, those rednecks are still voting Republican far and away.

Urban vs. rural is far more an issue of individualism vs. collectivism than it is a social conservative vs. social liberal issue, at the very heart of it. The social stuff is just the superficial layer that we all focus on because people get emotional about it and the media picks up on it.
