AMERICANS NOT MIDDLE-OF-THE-ROAD ABOUT HITCHHIKERS

NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) -- Looks like Republicans and Democrats don't have "middle-of-the-road" beliefs when it comes to picking up hitchhikers. According to a survey by FreeRide.com, 44 percent of Democrats say they would pick up a hitchhiker wearing a cowboy hat compared to only 21 percent of Republicans. In addition, 48 percent of Republican men say they'd be willing to pick up a female hitchhiker but only 11 percent of Democrat dudes would offer a lady a lift. Finally, 95 percent of Democrats and 97 percent of Republicans admit they would thumb their nose at senior citizens trying to thumb a ride.
