Folks don't want their child to get a participation trophy and pat on the head for coming in last, they want them to learn the hard lesson and try harder next time.

They want their educators to teach up to the best and brightest. They would rather their child struggle to receive a 70% at that level than a 100% of the lowest denominator.

They wish to go to church and socialize with like minded families without the over educated liberal 'elite' living off their tax money deriding their social choices as paranoid, backwards, homophobic and uneducated.

These folks don't have time or care to protest in the street or cry on youtube... they have work to do, families to raise and life to live.

They just took an hour or so to vote the stupid away and are back to what really matters.
