(Would be INTERESTING to know *exactly* what the wording was of the question - or questions - that was asked by Gallup. For example: good to know what the various respondents THINK 'conservative' means!)

Is it 'fiscal conservative' in their minds?

'Social conservative'?

BOTH?

Neither?

A fondness for sepia toned imaginings of bygone days?

Authoritarianism?

Anti-Authoritarianism (Libertarianism)?

Is is EVERYONE who thinks that the word 'conservative' sounds cool... even if they hold diametrically opposed policy beliefs from each other?

Hard to interpret the meaning of a poll's answers WITHOUT knowing what the questions were. :-)
