As a group I have to say no. There are certainly Conservatives who are racists, but there are also liberals who are racist as well. Also Libertarians and Socialists and Communists. Racism is a vice that is not limited only to Conservative WASPS.

How do you define 'racist'?

Yes, I think so.

I think the Ultra Conservatives are racist because they strongly resist any change to their way of thinking. Moderate Conservatives are less so, but it's not as overt. However I also think many liberals are ashamed to deal with their race.

Not by definition. Some of them probably are, just as some US liberals are probably also racists.

Not all of them. Heck, maybe not even most of 'em anymore. But a lot of them use racist rhetoric and/or codewords to get elected.

No. Perhaps some of them are, but I'm sure that there are many that aren't. I don't believe people can be grouped this way.

I'm sure some are. I tend to see racism more often in liberals but certainly they don't have a monopoly on it.

No, at least not today. I don't think theres that many (hardcore) racists left these days. Although theres still a good bunch of homophobic ones running around.

For the most part, right-winged US conservatives are all about right-winged fiscal polices.

I think its more true of European conservatives though. Its sort of being a truism. European ultra conservatives are largely about racial stuff, then immigration, but they don't care that much about gays and the fiscal stuff. American ultra conservatives are all about economics, a little bit about gays, then immigration at a distant 3rd and finally race.

Blanket questions (or statements) like that are seldom true (or accurate)

I don't think I've ever met someone who wasn't at least little bit racist.

Just curious here bill, but are you surprised at the results of this one? I see 15 'nos', only 3 'yesses' and the 'IDKs' and 'others' total only 12.
