Reagan Democrat? Try "typical Fox News viewer." Reminds me of something I read a few days ago: "Being rich is a part of being a right-wing 'populist' -- those who aren't believe they will be someday ... shaming rich liberals for wealth is actually a way of shaming them for being class traitors." From: http://pandagon.net/index.php/site/comments/the_right_wing_pundit_elitism/ Or, as a commentator at the blog "Balloon Juice" put it some time back: “The salient fact of American politics is that there are fifty to seventy million voters each of who will volunteer to live, with his family, in a cardboard box under an overpass, and cook sparrows on an old curtain rod, if someone would only guarantee that the black, gay, Hispanic, liberal, whatever, in the next box over doesn’t even have a curtain rod, or a sparrow to put on it.” Sorry to hear you're out of work -- hope things turn around soon.
