For some reason, Democrats, on a whole, have stopped evoking emotion on issues a la Ted Kennedy and Mario Cuomo. Never even heard anyone declare that Republicans don't care if your children can see a doctor when they are sick with extraordinary passion. Think Republicans filled the void - saying "you work hard and take care of yourself. The others are just takers and don't work hard".
Democrats stopped unabashedly declaring their liberalism, and the whole point of it.
Funny, I am now in a red state...and know exactly what you described about the conservative women here. However I see more teased up curled bleached hair and extra long painted nails. Can visualize them tapping on phones, posting a "one-up" Facebook post. Typically rooted in 'my family is greater and I have more friends than you do.' And you are so right..they would absolutely die if anyone saw them with wet straight hair and no makeup. Here, they have zero clue about anything worldly or political. They vote as their husbands tell them to vote.
