Amazing that McCain won the white vote by 12 points and still lost. But, apropos the recent thread on the voting propensities of the white working class, McCain's margin among the under-$50,000 households was 4 points; among the over-$50,000 HHs, 13 points.

It was a different story by education, though; white college grads went for McC by 4 points, but non-grads, by 18 points.
