"A person only needs to know one statistic to understand how corrupt the Republicans are. Only 6% of the best trained minds in the county call themselves Republicans." In related news, only 15% of the best trained minds in the country are D's. I guess it depends on who is doing the training. Perhaps corruption and political affiliation have an inverse relationship for that profession. Engineers tend to view themselves as much less liberal and slightly more conservative than the general public, according to a recent survey of over 1,200 readers of MACHINE DESIGN and Electronic Design magazines. The same survey also found that engineers say they are more likely to be Republican (42.1%) or Independent (33.7%) voters, as opposed to Democrats (14.5%). And although over a third of the engineers think Republicans represent the best interests of the engineering community better than Democrats, a majority of engineers (48.1%) believe neither party is really on the side of engineers. machinedesign.com
