National View/Local Corner Hybrid: Ohio Voters

NPR is reporting on Ohio Valley voters...because, well, Ohio is kind of a big deal this election.

The big take away...it's a mess.  And that kinda sums up the issue I've seen with Ohio voters.

People you'd expect to vote Democrat (working poor, lower middle class) are stuck on gay marriage.  Or abortion.  I remember being baffled by this when Bush got reelected--people loudly proclaiming they voted for the man were the ones who hurt the most because of his policies.

But Bush had the same social conservative mindset, and that's all that matter to them.  Where it gets interesting is these fundamentalist Christians don't necessarily like Mormons...Romney is no good old boy.
