This is happening because many people that labeled themselves themselves as such no longer do, though our views have not changed. What was a "conservative" in the 70s is no longer what is a conservative today. At one time conservatives supported smaller government, less government interference in our lives and more personal freedoms. Today's conservatives support none of those things.
The same holds true for Christians, or ones that used to call themselves that. The Church in America today is more about politics than religion and many people that used to attend no longer do, but they still hold the same faith.
Liberals have moved on to subjects that challenge traditional morality....
"Moved on"? Morality and tradition have always been their prime targets. None of their other shit flies unless they get those inconveniences of civilization out of the way.
