Can you point to *which* survey?


http://www.umich.edu/~nes/overview/overview.htm

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!

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.

Don't know about Doug, but Gould learned a long time ago that you can find a
study to support *any* conclusion.

I was listening to a radio show today in which an author was discussing a
previous book "What's the Matter with Kansas?" This author has done an
extensive study that shows that much of the Republican support comes from
working class whites who routinely vote *against* their economic self interest
to be on the "Godly" side of the "big four":
(God in school, guns, gays, and abortion).
The author had a convincing study that showed the higher a person's income, the
*less* likely they were to support George Bush.

I could do the research to creat a link, but then we'd have dueling websites,
or dueling studies. Proving nothing.

If you cannot express your own opinon or form your own thoughts, then I suppose
the thoughts and opinions of the University of Michigan are as good a
substitute as any.

Tell me what your thoughts and opinions concerning the Republicans being
better educated and informed than democrats?

I think that if you keep that up long enough you'll go blind.
