Republican ratings could affect regional differences

Reference no: EM133417487

Political Analyst 1: "Media pundits and confused academics tend to exaggerate the South's reputation as a stronghold of Republican sentiment. In fact, people who live outside the South and people who live in the South don't differ that much in their ratings of the Republican Party. Look at my latest Stata analysis. I found this: Non-southerners rated the Republicans at 40.85 on the feeling thermometer; this compared with a slightly warmer 46.05 for southerners. That's a paltry 5-point difference on the 100-point scale!"

Political Analyst 2: "Hmmm... that's interesting. But did you control for race? I wonder what happens to the relationship between region and Republican ratings after you take race into account. After all, blacks are less strongly attracted to the Republicans than are whites. And since southern states have a higher proportion of blacks than do non-southern states, racial differences in Republican ratings could affect regional differences in Republican ratings."
