I know Mike is a Republican, and Frank is very far left, but where is everyone else?

Ok, since no one has responded I guess this must have been discussed earlier. What are some other threads I can look at?

I think the reason there hasn't been much of a response is because, beyond Mike and Frank, there simply isn't that much info out there about the other Brains. They just aren't a group that talks publicly about politics.
I think I've read an interview (or a reference to an interview) asking the Rifftrax crew about Mike's politics that suggested that Kevin and/or Bill is liberal (or at least more liberal than Mike) and it's something they as a group don't talk about, but I don't have a source on that.

I don't really know about the cast's political leanings, and, to be honest, it's none of my business. As far as the show itself is concerned, there seems to be a sort of neutrality. I remember reading that, at least initially, Lorne Michaels considered SNL to be the "loyal opposition", just as willing and able to joke about Republican Gerald Ford as about Democrat Jimmy Carter. That's the attitude I perceive on MST3K, and it was a good move on their part.

I know there are some threads in Observer's Brain that dealt with this topic. I'm sure you can find more posts about it in there.
