"Because Republicans are the party of the rich and big business."

That was true 40 years ago, but old habits die hard.

Agriculture. When your livelihood is at the mercy of forces beyond your control, like the weather, you welcome collective security and govenment backup. The result is a bunch of people who see themselves as cultural conservatives but are in fact economic leftists.
