Which political party has the most dedicated constituencies? Looking at correlations among various ANES feeling thermometers that are stereotypically associated with the major political parties is a good way to look for such connections. Run one correlation matrix using the following feeling thermometers: big business, the military, the tea party, Christian Fundamentalists, and the Republican Party. Then run a second correlation matrix using the following feeling thermometers: feminists, poor people, labor unions, gays and lesbians, and the Democratic Party. Which correlation matrix has stronger correlations? What does this tell you about the cohesiveness of each party?
