Who Still Votes Republican?

POSTED BY: Matthew Tobey

In today's New York Times, conservative columnist David Brooks laments the GOP's gradual estrangement of large swaths of the electorate over the last two decades...

The Republicans have alienated whole professions. Lawyers now donate to the Democratic Party over the Republican Party at 4-to-1 rates. With doctors, it's 2-to-1. With tech executives, it's 5-to-1. With investment bankers, it's 2-to-1. It took talent for Republicans to lose the banking community.

Conservatives are as rare in elite universities and the mainstream media as they were 30 years ago. The smartest young Americans are now educated in an overwhelmingly liberal environment.

That's a lot of people, to be sure, but there are still some professions that reliably vote Republican...

* Unemployment office clerks

* White bespectacled female SNL and Mad TV aspirants

* Coat-hanger importers

* Flag-draped coffin moguls

* Flop sweat distillers

  5. Obama is The Dark Prince. The Antichrist is rising and I'm voting for him. Just as long as we are both voting for him, at this time it matters not what the reason is.

  8. Bob L: why do all the professionals hate america as u said? i dont think its always like that. They hate the republicans and they support the democrats why? Coz they are educated and well iformed whereas most republicans make a lot of noice coz they are empty vessels they only think of war. We dont need usa soldiers to be sent to the gallows of iraq and afghanstan. Life is too precious. We need barack, the peacemaker, we need all usa soldiers to be sent back home not to fight silly war and dangerous wars
