(92,456 posts)8. This is what many people vote on. It's why right wing is making a huge deal
out of the American eagle ad campaign within Sidney Sweeny . Even though most people have no opinion on the ad or no problem with it. There are a few career types that object to it but they do that with everything and everyone can comment anything online.
It's not policy issues that get these people to voter certain ways. It's this cultural thing where they can feel like they are sticking it to the liberals or they are being erased .
Policy might matter in situations where current economic situation is bad. And by that I mean things like losing a job and not decades long difficulties like cost of housing and cost of education and health care.
