How wealthy are we talking here? The CEO making 10 million and the surgeon making $400 000 are two very different people.

Wealthy liberals, ala Geore Soros, Warren Buffett, Ted Turner, etc.  There may be some wealthy conservative enclaves (Minneapolis/St. Paul suburbs, Southern suburbs, Orange County, CA), but most of the wealthiest areas outside of there are some of the most Democrat.

Fixed. Also, this isn't true; just because wealthy areas may lean left doesn't mean wealthy people do.

Wealthy conservatives are mostly investment bankers and oilmen, so they represent America better.

Wealthy liberals, industrial manufacturing CEOs and high tech entrepreneurs, are what poor conservatives dream of one day becoming.

Ah, do I count as "wealthy" here, and if so, just where do I fit in, in this little duopoly that has been constructed?  Smiley

Wealthy is just a word. This "class" isn't homogeneous. So neither one nor the other?
