Wisconsinites Against Cutting Health Care Spending/Ending Family Tax Deductions, yet Vote Republican?

It's hard to wrap your mind around the idea that people are more than willing to vote against their own best interest. Yet, after checking out the responses below, you've got to wonder why Republicans keep getting elected, or campaigns are even close.

My guess; Democrats have been so horrible framing the issues, that voters don't even know they're on the public's side on the topic below.

Here's how the numbers shake out in percentages in the recent Marquette University Law School:
-Cut defense: 53 yes; 42 no
-Tax increase across all income levels: 40 yes; 55 no
-Cut federal spending on health care: 39 yes; 55 no
-End most tax deductions (child care, mortgage): 32 yes; 62 no
