The republicans, Tea party etc are really good at getting their voters to vote against their own interests
The way they do it is to focus their campaigning on irrelevancies such as gay marriage and abortion or on nationalistic issues pertaining to USA being God's chosen country (how much ridiculousness can you get in one statement?).
These issues get their voters fired up and voting for them after which they legislate to look after the very rich at the expense of almost everyone who voted for them.
In short, they know exactly how to get turkeys voting for Xmas
