Probably has to do with most of them being poor.
Isn't it obvious?I'd say around 40% of democrats turn Republican after they get out of college and get a real job and understand that being Republican (at least fiscally) is what is best for their hard earned dollar.

While it was less than the taxes he cut for the wealthy (obviously because the wealthy has more money to cut), he also cut taxes for middle and lower middle class.

Lets be real here, if Bush didn't go to war he would be looked at even more unfavorably today. We couldn't do NOTHING over being attacked on our soil.
