Gould and Doug would prefer to use their gut feeling instead of the
University of Michigan's long term study of voters trends and attitudes.

After all if the voters actually thought instead of relying on insults and
slander they would vote the democratic ticket. Gould actually thinks his
gut feeling is more accurate than U of M study that is used and analyzed by
hundreds of Universites.

Go to this site and register.

You can then download the entire database and do a search on Education.
and another one on Income.

Can you point to *which* survey?

This is an interesting website, but your link just goes to the home
page. I did not find any mention of a study or report on education
level, income and party affiliation.




About 36% of Republicans graduated from college while about 28% and 23%
of
Independents and Democrats, respectively, graduated from college.

Supposing that there is a study saying this, does that mean it is
conclusively proven?

... About 59%
of Republicans made over $35,000 a year while only 50% and 35% of
Independents and Democrats, respectively, made over $35,000 a year.

Not a surprise.

OTOH I wonder what percentage of people living in mobile homes are
voting for Bush.


Again, the ANES is not interested in either political party, they are
just
trying to track long term political trends.

I found a number of interesting studies on their web site. However, even
if (and it's not proven yet) they have made study such as you claim,
then that is evidence but hardly proof. Meanwhile, spin on!
