"Republicans are actually smarter than Democrats.
At least, that’s what a study by the Pew Research Center tells us.
That Republicans are more knowledgeable is not all that surprising to anyone paying attention. There is a reason “low-information voters” vote Democrat."
And this:

"It isn’t surprising that the most ardent republicans and democrats are the smartest and dumbest of all the groups included in this study. A significant part of the republican world view is accepting social inequality as okay. This is a lot easier to do if you are the kind of person that will end up on top in an unequal world. If you are dumb on the other hand, and there fore are more likely to be the kind of person who land on the bottom of an unequal world, then you have more reason to support social equality. Consistent with this explanation is the fact that liberalism has been linked with low self esteem (3) and causing people to think poorly of themselves has been shown to decrease their tolerance for social inequality (4)."
