It's not just Tennessee rednecks who voted McCain. It's smart people like this local forensic psychologist. And she wants to make it clear so much that she's following the good advice of Ted Nugent, who supposedly stated regarding Californians:
... You should be pounding the desk with your fist, raising hell, and take this beautiful state back from the pimps, and the whores, and the welfare brats, and the gang-bangers who seems to have all the rights in the world while the good people, the productive, law abiding people don't have jack squat -- and I think I am going to throw up. ...
Yep, that sounds like the kind of secure values that put the "volunteer" into our fiercely independent local citizenry. So she let things fly publicly and is quite proud of herself, apparently.
By way of Tom Tomorrow (in NYC).

Mrs. Instapundit (or "the instawife" as he calls her) makes Glenn look like a raging liberal.
Hey, now.
It takes tremendous courage to come out as a McCain supporter in Knoxville Tennnessee.
Almost as much as is required to publicly berate a drugstore clerk.
What'll she think of next, refusing to tip servers on the chance that their political views might offend her? But, hey, she knew she had him.
I have nothing but sympathy for the employee caught in the crossfire and nothing but jealousy for the liberal customer. It would have been a full on lib/con battle royal under the right conditons.

I can only say that Its a good thing that the good doctor did not confront me. I made a living dressing people down, by the time I finished with her she would have felt lower that whale poo at the bottom of the Mariana Trench.
