Oh no. Now you've gone and done it. You've pointed out that there are
conservatives who are not necessarily Republicans. You'd better offer NOYB a
chair and smelling salts.

NOBBY is either a knee-jerk fascist, or a far left winger pretending to be one
(is anybody that good an actor?). Not surprising either way, his knowledge has
some serious gaps.

In the rural South that I grew up in, there were no Republicans. Yet it was a
very conservative and old fashioned environment. When I got a little older, and
the South switched almost overnight, it was because of the Republicans flaunting
an inhuman level of bigotry and racism... a policy that Bush is adept with...
and which accounts for most of the blue collar Republicans out there IMHO. The
Democratic Party disavowed attitudes like Lester Maddox's while the Republicans
embraced them.

I hope this answers the question "Why would anybody that isn't a millionaire
vote for G.W. Bush?"
