Okay here's the question I was getting at at how it ties to politics, P.H.D.s favor democrats?

I disagree, and think that out of those who do most have never left the world of academia, and as a Verminologist I can verify this is not a fact, and if you are basing what constitutes a fact on a poll that was asked on college campuses during the last election, I can assure you that this no longer holds true today, and by the way in the popular vote 0bamas numbers were not that impressive and the election was much closer than the poll you cite. Besides McCain was not a conservative but a RINO, oh and it is PhD not P.H.D. as the latter is an acronym for personal hygienic disorder, look it up
