Reply #9: Of course, not all NASCAR fans are Republican

[TSIAS]

But I'd venture to guess that 2/3 of fans are conservative.

Even in blue Dover, Delaware -- the whole buildup to the race struck me as faux patriotic and religious.

They always find a preacher from some Baptist Church. Lots of talking about the troops and the ol' Red, White, and Blue. Followed by a country music singer doing the national anthem.

However, I do give NASCAR credit for bringing Stevie Wonder to the California race. NASCAR's black fan must have appreciated their attempt to bring some sort of diversity.
