A new study indicates that whiny, insecure children grow up to be conservatives, while confident children grow up to be liberals.
The study was done on one-hundred Berkeley-area children over a period of twenty years, so it could be that whiny children grow up to be the opposite of whatever the prevailing adult political attitudes are. Either way, it's interesting. And until that different result is shown in another study, we liberals can taunt the conservatives like the confident bullies we are. At least until they go complaining to the teacher.
