I basically agree with everything you wrote (I think - I read it fairly quickly). I think it's more than just the South, though. As a rule of thumb, outside of party registration, the easiest way to find out how a white person votes is to ask how often they go to church. More than once a month, and they overwhelmingly vote Republican (African-Americans, of course, are very devout and heavily Democratic). Less than once a month and they vote Democratic. To first order, that's the dominating factor -

I break all the rules. Higher than average intelligence; college graduate; non-religious, only go to church for weddings and funerals, at least five years since I've been in one. I only vote democratic if there is no republican on the ticket, or the candidate is very opposite of my views.
