I would say it's less conservative b/c of a long tradition of economic liberalism as well.  I would say it's less Republican than other southern states b/c the republican surge in the south began in ubran areas and Arkansas doesn't a very large Republican anchor (the largest, I guess, would be the Fayetteville Area) comparable to ATL suburbs, and all the burbs in SC.  Still probably the most rural of Southern states (Mississippi might be close, but they don't have the same legacy on race as Arkansas).
