Demographers Playing With Blocs

After “angry white males,” “soccer moms,” and “NASCAR dads,” how will the pollsters group Americans in 2006 and 2008?

It won’t be long before politicians are crowing for the approval of the “uncircumcised uncles,” “equestrian dads” and “husbands beaten by Liza.”

Then the “Zagnut lovers,” “Yahtzee moms,” “irritable bowel dads,” “bowling aunts” and the oft-embarrassed “American Idol siblings” will be courted along with “Michael Moore Republicans” — GOPers who hate the war and love Krispy Kreme.

The only Americans, it seems, who are not stereotyped into some superficial “group” by pollsters, politicians and the media, are pollsters, politicians and the media — which is amazing, since they now seem to outnumber the rest of us.
