It's not race, it's not economics, it's rural voters against large cities. Look at the map when they break it down by state and county. Of course all the other factors play into the equation, but not to the degree usually given. For me I think we need to get back to "State's Rights" as was intended in this countries founding. If California wants to go off the deep end I don't care, if they want to screw their dog, I don't care, just don't pass a federal law to try to make me say it's normal.
