This internals for women with college degrees in the WSJ poll should scare the GOP......




New NBC/WSJ poll shows Trump job approval rating w/ college+ women at 27%-70% (!) vs. non-college men at 64%-32%.

Biggest GOP problem in 2018: women w/ college degrees are the likeliest demographic to turn out in a midterm election.

If that's remotely correct, Hello to the new Democratic house.........

I'm seeing a lot Debbie Downers today falling for the horse race narrative being driven by the SCLM.

At a minimum I think I talked my mom into spoiling her absentee ballot by marking Gillum and Nelson. She is the one that rages about n----s all the time. Don't know if she will return the ballot to count those votes for the Democrats, but at least it isn't for the Trumpers.

I hated him at first sight. And what I saw and heard later only confirmed it.

He's everything you don't want in a guy!

I don't have a degree and have been voting straight Dem since I could vote. I'm glad women with degrees are finally showing up.

White women with college degrees

40% approved of trump's job performance in April 1017,

by Jan 2018 that fell to 27 percent%

Looks like it is staying there.

51/44 for White Women with College Degree
92/6 for Black Women with C/D
66/27 for Hispanic Women with C/D
77/18 for NonWhite Women with C/D

So, my quick calculation says it was around 60/36 overall for Women with C/D

A 10% increase for Democrats is good, and the 9% decrease for Republicans is as well.

Are the majority of men misogynists, bullies and sexual predators wannabes? Really men, what is the attraction?

"I didn't become a millionaire because women and people of color held me back"

Of course the fact that he flunked out of college because he drank too much and skipped his classes is long forgotten.

It's men with no college degree that is his biggest demo.

I`m always gobsmacked that there is even a measurable amount of support, but 64 % of almost any demographic stretches credulity.
