| I agree with the first part- but don't really understand how, in our supposedly civilized society, how 'fighting' about something goes farther than 'talking' about something. I really think it has more to do with the republican voters being more likely to actually get out and vote. and I'm afraid that may be based on middle-class america being more likely to be working odd hours, unable to get a sitter on election night, or just plain too lazy or too jaded to think their vote counts, while upper-class republicans have been taught that it is their civic duty to support their party and are more likely to be able to do so. that last sentence might sound like I'm more inclined to vote Rep- very untrue. I don't make decisions based on what party represents any particular issue. |
