Mark Graber posted an interesting essay entitled Privileged Victims about a recent Pew survey, in which:

Researchers found that core Republican voters can be divided into three groups, Enterprisers, Social Conservatives and Pro-Government Conservatives. … Enterprisers differ from every other group of voter in two respects. They are much better educated and far more affluent on average. … Second, Enterprisers are far more committed to limited government and Bush administration policies during the war against terror than any other group of voters.

Come again? Enterprisers are committed to limited government and its abolition? These findings cry out for a cultural cognition analysis.
