White Collar Prejudice
"Do we really have to pretend to find policy reasons for this? Is it really that controversial to point out that you're going to find far more racism among not-so-smart, blue collar, caucasian liberals than you'll find among educated, affluent, white collar caucasian liberals, who vastly prefer Obama?"
What a bigoted comment. A good education doesn’t mean you are smart. It means you were lucky. Your education isn’t showing that you learned anything except how to look down your nose on people.
As one of those Ivy League Educated white collar professionals who actually knows and likes a lot of blue collar liberals, you might be surprised to find that many in this group are more worried about the dismantling of the social safety nets gained through the New Deal and Great Society, than if Clinton is female or Obama is black.
If people want to vote their pocketbooks, it’s OK with me.
