I wonder if the poll was skewed a bit because W invited the Yale Class of 1968 to the White House last year--but not his prep school buddies.
I was too busy keeping the 4-year-old out of harm's way to do a straw poll of the Class of 1984, but from what I could gather, the same sort of results would have applied.
