My Grandfather Rasmussen was a staunch Republican. He worked for a sand and gravel company, doing manual labor. But then, he was a Chicago Cubs fan, too. He was definitely working class. One of my Mudcat buddies on here is a Republican and he's a dentist. I wouldn't even bother to defend him. He's a fine, caring man who loves folk music and dislikes big government. I'd consider him working class, too. He gets up every morning and heads off to work. He doesn't dig for coal. He digs for cavities.
