Based on Pew Religion & Public Life Survey:
Predominately Democratic Liberals
Atheists, Buddhists, Hindus, Agnostics, Jewish
Predominately Democratic Conservatives/Moderates
Historically Black Protestants, Muslims
Predominately Swing Voters
Orthodox, Catholics, Mainline Protestants, Nothing in particulars
Predominately Republican Conservative
Mormons, Evangelical Protestants
Predominately apolitical
Jehovah's Witnesses
Do you think US politics is currently shaped by these religious divides? It is pretty obvious from this list that the Republican - Democratic spectrum could be approximated in relative adherence to Evangelical Protestants ideals. If you are either differ from the expected conservative/liberal reblican/democrat norm of your affliation - do you think you have a differnt view of Evangelical Protestant ideals and or less of one than those typical of your categorization?
I personally as 'Nothing in particular' would meet the predominate trend as a swing voter traditionally although as of late have been more republican leaning, but do remain fully open to non-mainline democrats.
