My MIL - who is 72 - voted Democrat, until Obama. She didn't vote for him because he's black - or, more correctly, half black. She doesn't know or care about the social or political issues. I'm sure she would be against most of the things the Democrats stand for today, if she would just take the time to think about it. But, she doesn't. She doesn't care. She votes Democrat because her father blamed the Great Depression on Republicans - which is a common myth.
@jmoore279 Hollywood? He is born and raised North Carolina. He still lives there. Get your facts straight. That would be like me saying, the only ones who vote for the right are Rich people and dumb rednecks. If you aren't rich, then fill in the blank.
@Caterpillarjon I think he's just in the mindset of the older generation .... the workers democrat type. Most older Dem's still don't see how the party has been high jacked by crazy loons on the fringe of reality and still cling to the old theme of workers vote democrat.
@lonewulf44 Must be, because my Grandmother who is 83 voted for Obama, and my Grandfather who died in 99 voted Democrat his whole life. The Democrats of the 30's and 40's, aint the Democrats of today. The Democratic party has never been the same since Kennedy.

My wife would appreciate it too, when we make her salary over $170,000 a year. Damn Andy, I love your show, but fuck, why are you so liberal?
