8. The title and the highlights don't match.
The title is about Democrats, but the highlights are about Americans in general.

Obama won this affluent bloc by a 50 to 48 percent margin. Bush won 60 percent of the bloc in 2004.

Affluent Americans are not broadly pleased with the president. Only 43 percent approved of Obama in June and July. But few of Obama's affluent supporters have turned on him. That's the salient point. In effect, almost half of affluent adults can be considered part of the Democratic base.
