Boots, we live on an island 2500 miles away from anything and even further from the view of a typical conservative. We are inundated with the views of DEMs and their liberal views that we often succumb to the same ideals. People in the heartland of America share much of the same ethics and beliefs, yet, sometimes become misconstrued by the extremes.
My point is, many of these same GOP's want what we want but are tired of the political agenda's of what has brought the country to the point of where we are.
I consider myself neither DEM or GOP and feel the push and pull from both sides. I see the rich getting richer and likewise the middle and lower class losing ground, but, I also feel that because we live in a predominately Dem state we are over-influenced by the beliefs of those to include our media.
The media needs to remain neutral if they are to give the truth without bias.
