PRINCETON, N.J. -- President Barack Obama's job approval rating among white non-college graduates is at 27% so far in 2014, 14 percentage points lower than among white college graduates. This is the largest yearly gap between these two groups since Obama took office. These data underscore the magnitude of the Democratic Party's problem with working-class whites, among whom Obama lost in the 2012 presidential election, and among whom Democratic House candidates lost in the 2014 U.S. House voting by 30 points.

The more educated you are, the dumber you get......

Aspects of Obama's ineffectiveness are sinking in.

Obama care, the economy, foreign relations, immigration, government operations in general-incompetency's, to name some.

Not to mention the gradual realization he's just a glorified community organizer at heart, manipulator, liar, but great speech-reader.

I'm thinking part of the lag in the college-educated crowd might be the sheer number of those who are public school teachers, probably the single most numerous profession that the educational system churns out.

Which, of course, kind of makes it a whole self-perpetuating system: you teach the kids, who then go on to teach more kids to become teachers of the next generation of kids and so on and so forth.
