The liberal media's ‘extremist’ voters

The Democratic Party’s ‘extremist’ voters « Hot Air:
"...For example, the notion that the GOP primary electorate is composed of unrepresentative extremists is undone by this cycle’s polling. 

A recent NBC/Wall Street journal survey is not the first to discover that the Republican electorate is now far more concerned with national security and terrorism than they are about the economy.
A full 27 percent described national security as their top priority for the federal government. “That’s followed by the deficit and government spending (24 percent), job creation and economic growth (21 percent) and religious and moral values (12 percent),” NBC News reported.
According to a January Pew Research Center survey, the GOP’s top priorities track reasonably well with the public’s top priorities."
...By contrast, NBC/WSJ became the latest poll to find Democratic voters are primarily concerned with domestic issues starting with the economy and job growth/creation, but also including health care (namely, preserving the Affordable Care Act), and climate change. 
Only 13 percent of Democratic voters believe terrorism and national security should be the federal government’s top priority.
