1. They are united in hate of anyone they think different.
They're also small minded, ignorant, and bigoted. That's what unites them.

8. That's exactly it
he makes it seem ok to feel the way they do, he gives credibility to all those hateful things they think and feel. They no longer feel like they have to suppress the bad thoughts they can't seem to control and this makes them feel better about themselves.

2. They are still the Team in Power.
That makes them the Winning Team. In their minds, anyway.

6. Yep. They think Bush, Rush, Hannity O'Reilley etc
all hate blacks, gays, latinos, jews and anyone different from them, so that keeps them united.

It's the party that loves to hate, categorize, divide, and bully.

12. Sloth, vanity, gluttony, greed

and so on. And, redundant with that, it's the affirmative action/ethnic party for WASPs.

They're essentially an occultism and Dubya is the High Priest. It's all magical, i.e. reality-disconnected, thinking.
