I would also guess, due to recent political trends, that Pittsburgh Steelers fans now lean GOP.

Given how West Virginia roots for them, as well as Ohio's eastern border, this is true.

Within Ohio, Cincy sports fans are more conservative than CLE sports fans, because of the different mannerisms of the two fandoms.

Dodgers fans tend to be more liberal than Angels fans. Padres fans strike me as more conservative than either, but I could be wrong; they're certainly more conservative than Dodgers fans though.

Stereotypically:
Dodgers fans = wealthy Hollywood types
Angels fans = socons and Hispanics
Padres fans = military types

If I was from southern California, which team would I favor?

My guess is a backyard independent team that plays for the joy of the game rather than as a large business.
