Walk up to as mirror and flash that Hollywood smile. See those teeth? You probably have no idea how much they tell about you.
Because the appearance of those teeth is usually an indicator of how often you see a dentist and how often you do see that enamel driller and puller tells oodles about your behavior -- such as how youll probably vote [...]

Oral health, they found, is positively associated with states that voted for Obama for President 2008 - meaning if you had good teeth, good oral health and went to the dentist when you should you voted for Obama.
Conversely if you had bad oral health and did not go to the dentist very often you were more likely you voted for John McCain and more than likely lived in a state that voted overwhelmingly for John McCain for President.

What the dickens are they even using as a measure of “income inequality.” Does it mean there are more rich people? More poor people?
Of course, the story is bogus — it’s meant to just highlight the liberal view of conservatives as toothless hicks.
LOL I would say it was for cosmetic reasons only and not health.
They don’t take trouble to separate cosmetic enhancements from tooth repair/prostheses, do they?
No
What about me? I never go to the dentist, I’m a 40-ish white conservative female, but I have never had a cavity or braces and my teeth are strong and straight and white. Guess I need to brush less and start opening cans with my jaw to fit the Deliverance profile of these idiot statisticians.
Statistics show that adults who crap their pants are far more likely to vote for Obama.
All I can say is that even though the people have dental coverage through welfare, they frequently “no show” their appointments. Often, dental offices will “double book” welfare patients, because they know most of them won’t show up. And even if the DO show up, they’re often 20+ minutes late and need to be rescheduled. Most people with JOBS that provide dental insurance are generally good about showing up for appointments. Especially if they need a late afternoon or Saturday appointment.
My family and I go every six months like clockwork. We finally paid off our son’s orthodontist bill to the tune of $5,600, all out of pocket.
And, oh yeah, we always vote Republican.
Statistics can always be skewed. If over 90% of African Americans voted for Obama, and they are among the poorest (according to the media), then this article makes no sense.
I see my dentist twice a year and voted for one democrat in my life; 39 years ago.
This is socialist “medicine research” and we may as well get used to it under Obammy’s kill care system.
Our whole medical system is about to take on the “science” with outcomes that serves communists just as the Soviet system did.
Conservatives will be murdered as enemies of Obammy’s state.
