<description>&lt;p&gt;and furthermore, being that the democrats are the champions of the middle class, i find your logic even more amusing.  middle class blue collar workers vote democrat.  and most factory workers may not even have high school diplomas, let alone degrees from higher level institutions.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;i find amanda harlech&apos;s train of thought here quite amusing.  

so democrats live in cities.  but the one&apos;s that were responsible for this financial mess were republicans.  but this problem came from wall street, in new york city.  but it was the bankers who are republican that were responsible for this.  so of all the people in this city, it was only the republicans that are responsible.  yet the people that live here are democrat.  ha you are like disproving your own points here.

and please show your &quot;studies&quot; that show that democrats are more educated.  i mean, you are saying that the bankers are republican, and i guarantee most of them have at least a bachelors degree and a lot of them have MBAs.  that is a pretty educated field i would say.

i would like to see these studies.  i mean, did you decide that you would just post something that you made up on this message board without further detail?

sometimes i think i leave this message board stupider then when i came.  reading opinions from mental midgets such as this just can&apos;t be a good use of my time.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;It was obvious from the beginning, Sarah was all about Sarah.  Remember the &quot;Palin/ McCain&quot; gaff early on?  Hope she enjoys her $150K momento of clothes, bought by campaign funds, when she is shipped back to Alaska.  Anyone who contributed should demand a refund! 

McCain needs his head examined for picking her (or allowing her to be picked for him) as his VP running mate.

Biden is no rocket scientist, but she makes him look like Einstein.  She has no clue about urban areas and from her remarks, doesn&apos;t care to learn.  She scares the hell out of this &quot;urban&quot; PA girl!  Love &quot;The Lady is a Rogue Tramp&quot;, I can hear Sinatra singing that real clear.  Thanks.  &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;While she may have a bright political future in Alaska, her complete inability to relate to anyone except extreme right-wing religious lunatics is still a leash -- hopefully one short enough to keep her in Alaska forever.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;This nut is just making things better for Obama, the man is sure to win now!

And I am not a fan of either parties, but it sure looks like an Obama win.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;A supreme disaster for the McCain ticket. This should be it.

This woman will be irrelevant. She&apos;ll probably become an Alaskan senator, and will appeal to and represent only the far right base. 

She&apos;s not a maverick nor a pit bull - she&apos;s a naive loose cannon.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;and, east river,  all those situations that you mention follow greed as principle more than civilty in urban centers.

I BET YOU! MOST Bankers in such areas are Republicans rather than Democrats. So it is not the urbans centers as much as the value of supreme laissez faire individualism what rules this &quot;solutions&quot;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Remember the McCain campaign director in Fla who got caught fellating a black guy? His defense was he did it to save his life. He was surrounded by black guys and thought he&apos;d get his ass kicked if he didn&apos;t give head. That&apos;s a true story, look it up.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Tracey Schmitt, Palin&apos;s press secretary, was urgently called over after Palin wandered over to the press and started talking.

Emergency! All hands! She&apos;s TALKING TO THE PRESS!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;THE LADY IS A ROGUE TRAMP
(The Lady is A Tramp, Frank Sinatra)
WilliamBanzai7

She&apos;s just too hungry, for a Vice Presidential date
She loves political mud slinging, never heard of Watergate
She&apos;d never bother, with &quot;UnAmerican&quot; voters she hates
Thats why the lady is a rogue tramp

Doesnt like to play games, with media barons and earls
Would only go to campaigning, in ermine and pearls
Will dish the dirt, unlike the rest of those girls
Thats why the lady is a rogue tramp

She loves the free, fresh permafrost wind in her hair
Northern redneck life without care
Shes broke, but its ok the RNC&apos;s there
She loves her trailer camp even though, its cold and its damp
Thats why the lady is a rogue tramp

Doesnt like strategy games, with sharpies and aides
Won&apos;t get on the bus unless its prepaid
Will dish out more campaign dirt, than the rest of us broads
Thats why the lady is a rogue tramp &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;It is also a fact that people with higher education move to urban center such as NYC and those with lower educations stay in rural remote areas.


Where the &quot;smart&quot; people promptly invented credit default swaps, mortgage backed securities, flawed rating agencies, etc., etc.  Not to mention private equity and investment banks where the bankers get paid to shuffle money around and ship jobs overseas.  Hurray for urban centers!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;studies have shown a correlation between level of education and political preference:
those that have barely High-school education favor the conservative ideologies of republicans. Those that have a minimum of 4 years of college education favor liberal ideologies of democrats.

It is also a fact that people with higher education move to urban center such as NYC and those with lower educations stay in rural remote areas.

If the country is gonna be rule by the result of a faulty high-school education it would be worth to take  a look to that formation and its values (lack of) &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;she represents all that is wrong about the american educational system and subsequently the result of democracy in a country with a huge cultural problem as result of bad education. 
It is horrific to witness the republicans blind fervor for nonsense when it comes to electing the leader of this country: buffalos in panic jumping right in to the abyss. Republicans have no awareness on the impact of their politics in more than 1 mile around them or one year ahead of time. Their sense of pride based  religion as the deepest understanding on ethics by memory  and social duty by becoming warriors to a feudal power where the use of violence equals law.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;If I were McCain, I&apos;d be trying not to get elected; not just her, but the folks who forced McCain to pick her, will be very, very interested in his health, in a &quot;don&apos;t get well soon&quot; manner of speaking...&lt;/p&gt;</description>
