Was it good for you too, Mrs. Lincoln?

Let's see, Kinsey blew the lid off America's sex life in the 50s with in-depth interviews and new-fangled anonymous polling. Next came studies of our feelings about breakfast cerals and collar stains. Then politicians got savvy to Madison Avenue technique. And now, well...
Primetime Live Poll: More Republicans Satisfied With Sex Lives Than Democrats

....The poll analysis includes a breakdown by many subgroups, including region, age and even political party affiliation, which is the topic of results released today:

Of those involved in a committed relationship, who is very satisfied with their relationship?
• Republicans – 87 percent
• Democrats – 76 percent

Who is very satisfied with their sex life?
• Republicans – 56 percent
• Democrats – 47 percent

The poll analysis also reveals who has worn something sexy to enhance their sex life:
• Republicans – 72 percent
• Democrats – 62 percent

When asked whether they had ever faked an orgasm, more Democrats (33 percent ) than Republicans (26 percent) said they had.
Guess we'll have to watch Thursday night to see if Jack Ryan, Roger Stone, Dick Morris and the other "family values" All-Stars may have skewed the results more than Jim McGreevey and a blue dress.

Still trying to figure this one out though: "...and the poll results show that women are more likely to fake orgasms."

[update: Daniel, in comments points out my goof: Kinsey, not McKinsey. Freudian maybe? . Thanks Daniel.]
