You guys need to play a game called Democracy 3. In fact, it should be a requisite for posting in this forum. It's hella fun for those of us with a political bent. I'll admit, it makes you think about lots of different factors, though to be honest, some of the mechanics in the game don't accurately reflect the real world, but hey, what game is 100% accurate?

I plan to get Democracy 3 at some point, I already have the second version and enjoy it even with its flaws

That fact doesn't surprise me - what does though is when you look at the bottom end which I would expect to be solidly DEM based solely on economic standing. However, the GOP does well in many poor areas which in my opinion is based on their positions on the 'social' issues.

All of the 1%ers in my family/circle of friends are largely fiscally conservative and socially liberal.
