I think you're half-right because you're missing the fact that this applies to any major conservative enclaves as well. I'm a conservative (fiscally, mostly, but socially progressive) and often, but not always, vote for Republican candidates I like. However, I find that the conservative/Republican "world" is just as hostile to opposing viewpoints as the liberals are of opposing viewpoints of their own. We're all guilty as charged in this regard.
