I am no big fan of polls but since the resident libs like them so much, this is for them.

Poll: Republicans Are Happier Than Democrats
Wed Mar 15 2006 10:14:36 ET
The Pew Research Center recently updated a question about happiness that the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago has been asking since 1972.
In every asking of the question, ROLL CALL reports, Republicans have been happier than Democrats.
Republicans tend to be better off than Democrats, and that is one explanation for the happiness gap. But when the researchers controlled for household income, Republicans at all income levels were happier than Democrats at those same income levels.
As for ideology, conservative Republicans were happier than conservative Democrats, and moderate to liberal Republicans were happier than comparable Democrats.
END

I think we all meed to give our resident libs a big group hug to make them feel better.
