12. A 12 point spread in IQ

Even if it is accurate, there is only a 12 point spread in IQ by that data. If you throw out the top and bottom there is only a 10 point spread. At that particular spot on the curve a 10 point difference is not that big a deal.

Also, in the top 25 of the list, there are 13 red states and 12 blues.

Some day, I will understand how calling people stupid is supposed to win them over to our beliefs. But then again, since I am in a red state maybe I am just not smart enough to ever understand the logic behind this argument.
