I got my MBA from Northwestern University, and the teachers there were

Really? Then why are so many of the pro-Bush/Cheney crowd such ignorant
bigots? You might check the educational system rankings of various
Red/Blue states, too.


Yes, liberal degrees maybe. You will note that most MBA holders are
republicans. As a matter of fact, Kellogg hosted a few young republican
parties. I work in the securities industries, and I only know of a few
democrats that are traders, bankers or venture guys. Anyone making any
money will vote republican. It doesn't matter if they believe in the Iraq
war, or abortion, or anything else, they just care about paying less in
taxes. Everything else is secondary. The people that run the financial
institutions in the U.S. will vote republican.


When I worked at Paine Webber beginning in 1987, there was also the theory
that people in that biz voted mostly Republican. But, there's something
called the "Dewar's Effect" which brought out the truth in a number of
instances. People often say one thing, but do another. You never know.
