Idaho ignored?

No.


No.

Sure.

Add a high tech corporate office and BOOM a million Democrats are programmed and then released onto the population.

Except... in all probability, the new workers are Republicans already, and there aren't many. And young people from conservative places are still conservative.

I would bet any amount on your proposition-- an only 15 point Bush win. 5 grand? 10 grand?

10 points???  Al Gore lost by 40!  Idaho is the most hopeless state in American for Democrats.

No, Utah is.

Demographics will pull Idaho left.  It will follow in the footsteps of Nevada and Arizona.  Someday it will become a battleground.  Maybe as early as 2012.

Idaho is not going to be a battleground this year. Or in 2012. Or so long as the parties remain ANYTHING like they are today. Never.

Kerry has a wide margin among college graduates.

Wrong.

Bush won college grads in 2000 and will again.

Better luck next time.

I don't think this is true....Bush won college grads who don't have graduate degree, while Gore won those with post-grad degrees by a wide margin.   I believe Gore edged Bush out narrowly when the two groups are combined.

I think Bush won the combined group slightly.

But, that's not the point. A lot of post-grads are professors, and they are leftist of course because of all the various reasons people talk about.

Take out college profs, and college grads are clearly Republican.

In other words, getting a more educated work force makes you MORE REPUBLICAN not less. I guess building a college would make you more Democratic.

You didn't read my post very well.

My point was: "high-tech" jobs are not held by Democrats.

Getting Micron does not add Democrats.

That is an issue on this thread.

People with normal degrees and real jobs lean GOP.
