8. Rural voters don't place

a priority on their economic status; otherwise they would have moved to the 'burbs long ago.

They vote on God, guns and gays. And they always will. In the South you have the added factor of racism to go with the homophobia and anti-abortionism.

This is why they are so zealous. Most of them believe it is some sort of divine retribution they are carrying out by voting against the "godless" Dems.
