they [The Rooneys] are super libs,

Are they super libs, or are they super Democrats? I believe the Rooneys are closer to the traditional, working class Democrat--socially conservative, though more liberal from a fiscal standpoint.

"I believe the Rooneys are closer to the traditional, working class Democrat--socially conservative, though more liberal from a fiscal standpoint."

Perhaps, all I know is that they supported Barrack Obama during the primaries (they were in attendence at his rallies here, but I never read about them being at the Clinton rallies).

Here's a little hypocrisy for you, some of the brothers (there are five brothers that own shares though one runs the team, Dan) have to sell their shares. They are trying to get the deal done this year because they fear tax increases in the inheritance taxes and capital gains tax increases under a possible Obama administration. Yet, they are big time supporters of his.
