    I'm sure many Tea Party members are well educated (much more accurate then "more educated") but if that is true; Why have they been and continue to be wrong on just about every issue?

    "“I just feel he’s getting away from what America is,” said Kathy Mayhugh, 67, a retired medical transcriber in Jacksonville. “He’s a socialist. And to tell you the truth, I think he’s a Muslim and trying to head us in that direction, I don’t care what he says. He’s been in office over a year and can’t find a church to go to. That doesn’t say much for him.” "

    Yep - really, really educated....

    The article doesn't mention the level of education or wealth of those polled, and it doesn't mention the confidence band (aka margin of error).

    I suspect polling error.

    From your article:

    ""Some defended being on Social Security while fighting big government by saying that since they had paid into the system, they deserved the benefits.

    Others could not explain the contradiction.

    “That’s a conundrum, isn’t it?” asked Jodine White, 62, of Rocklin, Calif. “I don’t know what to say. Maybe I don’t want smaller government. I guess I want smaller government and my Social Security.” She added, “I didn’t look at it from the perspective of losing things I need. I think I’ve changed my mind.” ""

    er... it is ENTIRELY possible for both tea partiers and liberals on average to BOTH be more educated than average Americans...

    so, no it doesn't kill anything...

    EDIT: it merely means that the educated in both parties assign themselves to these groups...

    Well-educated people can be conservative or liberal. I really don't see the point of bringing this up.

    You had to go back two years to find a poll that backed your opinions?
