Nothing published with that prominence. We do have the more-or-less

annual General Social Survey. Its raw data is published on the web

<http://gort.ucsd.edu/gss/>, but it ain't easy to use. >>

The Institute for Social Research in Ann Arbor, MI, gathers stuff like this. I used to use when I was a grad student at Michigan in poli sci. I forget the name of the database, but search for ISR on the web and see what you can find.
