To test the hypothesis...

We need to increase the resolution beyond just Obama vs McCain. How well does the state IQ correlate with the percentage vote split? I.e., It isn't just dumb states for McCain vs smart ones for Obama. The clincher would be if the smarter the state, the greater the Obamagap.

To tell the truth, I can't take this kind of study seriously, but I'm amazed at how you guys do. Lighten up, fellas.
