The New Englander gets a certain amount of iconic stigma.  Probably because of Beecher's particularly loud voice.  I read a sermon of his once and he spent more time preaching against the evils of slavery than anything relating to the Bible.  I probably hang the term around the New Englander's neck too broadly, but it is just my opinion that they seemed to be more vocal and ardent.
