Your post is prima facie evidence that you take far too much interest in how other people live their lives. That's the opposite of conservative.
To be fair, you would seem to fit right into the Maryland political scene, however.

Amazing, amazing place. Like in totally different politically, than say forty years ago. I just don't get it, for I still know many people there who are indeed the same conservative (honest) folks of that past time.
Was it the Baltimore Sun? Paul Sarbanes? Barbara Mikulski? Marvin Mandel? Bloomberg and the Johns Hopkins U? Washington DC environs with the modern day expansion of central gov't? Greater population density?
Whatever the reasons Maryland (including Balto) is a modern day philosophical abomination of what it once was. And whatever those reasons I'm afraid they speak for a nation in general.
Although I will say again, as posted here years ago, Barabara Mikulski could be pointedly put on the spot in front of her constituency (blue collar) and forced to revert to conservative (honesty and responsibility) ideals. Indeed it is the "Republicans" who have failed us in doing so.
Hopefully that is Sarah Palin's motivation.
