It clearly shows that the majority of college educated voters chose... uhm.... Bush.


It showed that the majority of post-graduates voted for Kerry.  Thats the people with doctorates and masters whom are generally thought of as being smarter than those without.

It seems a lot of people on this site are conservative and thus would have difficulty seeing Fox News bias.  I guess it makes sense since this site is dedicated to business and sales numbers, something more attractive to a conservative, business class crowd.


1. But ALSO that high school drop outs, are more likely to vote left, and in greater proportion. The tendency to vote right increases from that point up until college gradution, which means that there is not a simple correlation (as one becomes more educated you also become more liberal).

2. The actual differences I suspect have little to do with education, per se. Union workers are less likely to have college education, hence the democratic leaning. Similarly, a good number of post-grad degrees tend to go to people in fields that attract more liberal people - educators most notably. Conservatives are more likely to go into business fields, which rarely require you to earn a higher degree.

2. Just as liberals have trouble seeing the bias in CNN, MSNBC and the broadcast networks. However, Fox is not nearly as biased as liberals believe, nor the MSM as much as conservatives believe.
