Hot Air publishes a survey and a US map.
The survey tells us that "financial issues" outpace "social issues" with the surveyed folks.
Well, OK.
Then Hot Air has a US map which purports to show "Christie" States, "Palin" States, (etc.) The vast majority are "Christie" states.
Yah, well...maybe Hot Air forgets that Christie is absolutely positively pro-life, and just cut $7.50++ million of Planned Parenthood funding from the New Jersey budget.

Fiscal/Social are not that disconnected really...
In the associated article...
"Do these results mean social conservatism has no place in the present political environment? Absolutely not. However, what this survey does suggest is that in order to maximize economic and social conservative gains, conservatives and libertarians think it will require two distinct strategies — inter-related, but clearly bifurcated. Republicans and Tea Partiers are choosing two-track governance: a fiscal issue track at the federal level, and a fiscal/social issue track among the states."
Which I 100% agree with. We need to focus on the fiscal with the Feds and roll stuff back to the States to let them focus on social via the 10th Amendment.
THAT is the solution. The 10th should be brought back long and strong.
Don't forget -- Palin is 100% on pro-life too.
So, you know, take your pick between them; but you're getting the one with the other.
Chris Christie is Catholic too...
FTW!
