According to Media Metrix, web behavior apparently also differs between Republicans and Democrats.  Registered Republicans are more likely to visit business and financial news sites such as schwab.com or etrade.com as well as on-line sports websites such as ESPN.com.  Democrats are more likely to visit retail sites and sites that provide specific advice on how to perform certain tasks like gardening or parenting.

Sounds like you could replace "Republicans" and "Democrats" with "men" and "women," respectively.

fans of country music, college football, and the TV comedy show "Friends" favored Republican Bob Dole. 

The "Friends" thing really surprises me. Friends is very much about a stereotypical democratic leaning demographic (young people) who are single or shacking up (also dem leaning) and live in a big city (even more likely to vote dem).

Ah, but it's Gen X, which is probably the most conservative generation born in the 20th century.
