<<Are you suggesting that working class Republicans are happy about their prestige, pay and benefits decreasing? Or are there no working class Republicans?>>

Harking back to the Clinton years I recall a string of Military base closures in the news as spending was decaying.
Visit any military base and surrounding it is the vast civilian support complex of mostly minorities who do the dirty work. House cleaning, baby sitting, maintenance, food preparation.
With increased military action, those jobs are coming back and my assumption was, right or wrong, that those workers lean toward the Democratic vote.
What say you?
