Meanwhile, self-described conservatives are more likely to have a larger amygdala, an almond-shaped area that is associated with fear and anxiety.

--------------
Ask Ms. Schultz about her tenure as head of the Red to Blue program and her lack of support for candidates like Joe Garcia, Annette Taddeo and Doug Tudor. Ms. Schultz has repeatedly said that she cannot publicly support the three Democratic candidates who ran to unseat some of the worst Bush Republicans in the US House of Representatives: Mario Diaz-Balart, Lincoln Diaz-Balart, and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. Progressives Are Doomed! Obama Can Count Me Out.
