    Yup, stupid people vote Republican. Their war on education will only end when their party is dead, burned, buried, and pissed on.

      That’s not true, though. Partisanship is far more tied up with local industry than individual intelligence or educational attainment.

      People who earn money in Republican friendly industries vote Republican. What the GOP has done to capture the nation is to seed big swing states with a petrochemical industry and tell people “if you vote Democrat, they’re going to Green the economy and you’ll lose your cushy jobs”
