Gotta love it when our liberal media betters let their true elitist colors show.
As Twitchy told you yesterday, L.A. Times columnist David Lazarus touted what he felt was compelling evidence that Democratic voters are way smarter than Republican ones. Not to be outdone, Nobel Prize-winning New York Times economist Paul Krugman offered up this take today:

Wyoming has <600K people, 86% white, 24% with Bachelors degrees. New Jersey has 9 million people, 58% white, 35% with Bachelors. Each is electing one senator. 2/

I know what you are saying and am with you politically, but cut the crap with the "real America" line. I live in fly-over country and lines like that don't help.

With that kind of thinking no wonder flyover America thinks the urban progressives hate them.

You lost me Paul. I thought we were all Americans. You seem to have a color chart with every comment you make.

There you go, banging on the identity politics drum again. As if there are groups in America whose votes should somehow count for less. Knock it off. I realize you are a terrible economist, but you are even worse at politics.
