Be that as it may, Dems drive Volvos and Repubs drive Fords. And only American union members may build the latter.
And no smattering of quotations can disprove that.
Please...Please, restraint from non-sense.
Or at least do some research before posting it!

I haven't been able to find any stats for who owns what type of vehicle, but I did find this report on hybrids, prepared in 2007 when American auto makers were not offering quite as many hybrids as they are today.
Quote:
NEW YORK (December 4, 2007) – Democratic, wealthy, educated and active are four adjectives that describe today’s hybrid vehicle owner, according to a recent analysis from Scarborough Research, a consumer and media research firm.
Scarborough’s analysis finds that almost half (42 percent) of the households in the U.S. that own or lease at least one hybrid vehicle have an annual income of $100,000 or more. That is more than twice the national average. The adults who live in these households, “Hybrid Owners,” are more than twice as likely as all U.S. adults to have a college degree. This includes the twenty-seven percent of Hybrid Owners who have a post graduate degree, compared to nine percent of adults overall. Hybrid Owners skew older than average, and are 23 percent more likely than average to be aged 50+.
When it comes to politics, the Democratic party commands the highest percentage of Hybrid Owners. Thirty-eight percent of Hybrid Owners cite Democrat as their political party affiliation. Fourteen percent are Republican, and 34 percent are Independent. The Independents include those who stated in the Scarborough survey they were “Independent” (eight percent of Hybrid Owners); “Independent, but feel closer to Democrat,”(20 percent of Hybrid Owners), and “Independent, but feel closer to Republican” (six percent of Hybrid Owners). Fifteen percent of Hybrid Owners did not identify with a political party in the Scarborough analysis. Eighty-one percent of Hybrid Owners stated they “always” vote in presidential elections, versus 71 percent of the total U.S. adult population.

feel free to investigate the rest of your claim.
Regards,
The topic is American union members and their lack of support from Democrats. Volvos are built in Sweden.
But thanks for your nits. I'm sure you enjoy picking them.
Where do you come up with this nonsense? Almost everyone I know is a Democrat and most of them drive American cars and none drives a Volvo. In fact I get crap from many of my Democrat friends for owning a Saab.
You seem to think in Fox soundbites.
Ah, Tommy lad. Be checking this, courtesy of GreenGene.

The same liberals who support giving the UAW and other unions "big handouts" also buy foreign cars. The hypocrasy of the Democratic party is astounding. Whatever, 2008 was the year when so many of us were sheep...
