There are lots of people in the northeast, and I guess the north in general, who are Democrats, because of economic politics.
The easiest example is the unions. Let's remember, the north is where most of industry traditionally is in the country.
Majority of people are laborers who have depended on the unions to defend their middle class standard of living. But it's no surprise that lot's of these people are otherwise pretty conservative in their attitudes.
If Republican's were smart and embrace the unions, like they do the police unions, instead of looking at them as adveserial to capitilasm, Democrats wouldn't have a chance in this country.
But perhaps this is a subject for another thread.
Oh my, I think I poked the bear.
