Someone who values life. Knows smaller government = more freedom. A Christian. Most of hard working rural America.

When Stephen Colbert was signing up to be a candidate for the presidential race, he pulled out pens that "symbolized" each party. For the Democrats, he had a pink, sissy looking pen.
For the Republicans, he first had a pen that had a vampire on top, symbolizing Rudy Giuliani, and then he had a pen that was "big and white".
So I can only imagine Republicans as big, white vampires now.
Edit: And since I'm a girl, I think I can tolerate a pink pen.

You know, I told a stranger once that I lived in the American South. Her reaction was a rather aghast "how awful for you" and then a noticeable step AWAY from me. When I asked her about her reaction, she sheepishly admitted that is was her prejudices speaking.
There are all kinds of conservatives. I am a fiscal conservative. I think people should live within their means, and generally consume far less than they actually do. I think conspicuous consumption is a curse that we have passed on to too many generations of Americans, and we have begun in earnest to export the stupidity to the third world.
When I picture a fiscal conservative, I look at myself.
By the way, if you saw me in a swim suit, you'd drop YOUR dentures. But that may be from my libertarian streak or my social liberalism.
Go figure.

Old (holding on tradditional values and resistant of change) , formally dressed in gold and diamonds (from extra income), and in good health (from being able to afford health care).

Ohmygosh...sounds just like my father-in-law. And there's even Fox News playing 24/7. He's in dire need of an Ex-Lax.
No one really pays attention to his rantings anymore
