My mail to Brin-L got bounced a couple of times recently.
Here's one, answering "The Fool"....

This is a myth of the right. In fact, GOP support PEAKS at education levels just below a bachelor's degree. As education rises further, support for the Republican Party plummets. Higher education gives people different, but even more compelling reasons to care deeply about saving the future.
Goppers dismiss this as the 'fuzzy-headed egghead effect." But you and I know that ain't it.
It is the reason why support for Bill Clinton was astonishingly high among the US military's senior officer class, while sergeants are overwhelmingly pro Bush. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
