THERE YOU GO!!!! Good on you.
Although, I wouldn't have worded it so harshly. I would have said that if you are "uneducated," you vote for the Republican. Let's try to maintain some measure of grace and decorum.

Actually, you did word it "so harshly". You said, "If you are dumb and backwards, you certainly vote Republican." That was lacking a measure of grace and decorum, I guess.
And factually, you are wrong about uneducated (or undereducated) people. According to the latest polling data from IBD/TIPP, 49% of people with only a high school education say they intend to vote for Obama, as opposed to 40% for McCain.

Well, SLAP ME AROUND AND TELL ME NOT TO CUSS ANY MORE. If 49% of educated folks are voting McCain, I guess I better jump on that bandwagon.
Whoa, wait a minute. Was that folks with a high-school diploma, or folks with *only* a high-school diploma?
If it's only the high-school diploma, eff em. I'll vote for Obama, like everybody else.

That's not really much of a shocker. McCain seems to be struggling in every poll I see, regardless of the demographics of the poll - educated, uneducated, rich, poor, black, white, purple, you name it...
