You're the one who made that link. Note it's always the libs who draw the racist connections.

Are we really using a "cut and paste" non linked listing of state IQs to rebuff a link to a political humor blog with no shown credibility?

I don't recall ever taking an IQ test before or after voting.

What you have is a lot of assumption based on very little real information.

Although I'm non partisan, and fiercly independant, I have to agree with stats by the counties. Leave the derogatory remark towards dems aside.

Also note that in most instances the states with smaller land mass (more population per square mile) will of course have higher density of so called "smart" people(per the OP's stance). Since we're talking averages here, it kinda makes the whole thing moot.

That's right, but they are too stupid to realize that. Especially since the ones with the lowest IQs vote Democratic.
