Counties such as Westchester and Montgomery Counties may have a higher per capita income than other counties and vote Dem, but that is only because the cost of living is much higher (taxation, labor costs etc.). Places like New Canaan, CT, Bernardville, NJ, Newport Beach, CA still vote Republican. Wealthy white gentiles who earn their living outside of the government, the trial bar, and the entertainment industry still vote Republican.
When I worked in banking, I always found it funny how so many of my senior colleagues were Republican, but married liberal wives.
Sounds about right. I'm also pretty sure that 2004 exit polling shows that income is a great predictor of who votes for whom. Nearly half of workers in America no longer pay federal taxes... ridiculous! We'd have a much smaller and much more conservative government if income tax day were moved to October, plus everyone had to pay a minimum on their income taxes. If not taxes--then community service.
Well, hey, you know how sexy them liberal women are.
Just look at Hillary or Helen Thomas../sarcasm
