Facebook: Democrats like Beatles, Republicans like Duck Dynasty

Facebook can tell a lot about your politics by what you "like."

The social networking site looked at the pop culture pages most often liked by users who also liked Republican and Democratic candidates running for Congress or governor this year.

The results found big some big cultural differences:

Music

Generally: R&B is Democratic, rock is center-left, and country is Republican. The Beatles, those icons of '60s counterculture, are overwhelmingly "liked" by Democrats, while country singer George Strait is a disproportionate Republican favorite.

Television

Democrats, predictably, are far more likely to "like" left-leaning news and talk programs like The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, The Colbert Report, and the Rachel Maddow Show. But the most popular show for Republicans isn't on Fox News. It's A&E's Duck Dynasty.

Books

Political authors are predictably right and left, but two popular authors —poet Maya Angelou and astronomer Neil deGrasse Tyson — are even more popular with Democrats than liberal thinkers Noam Chomsky and Rachel Maddow.  Democrats like The Great Gatsby, The Color Purple and The Hobbit, while Republicans like Atlas Shrugged and Heaven Is for Real.

 Destinations

Democrats like the Empire State Building. Republicans like George Washington's Mount Vernon.

Some cultural landmarks seem to have universal appeal across the political spectrum: The CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men,The Old Farmer's Almanac, AC/DC, author James Patterson and the Jersey Shore (the place, not the MTV series).
