Most Americans don’t have a college degree. Only about 30 percent of the population has a bachelor’s degree, so 70 percent do not, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. But even without that “formal education,” most of the non-degreed do not consider themselves stupid, and for good reason—they aren’t.

Walker did leave college to go to work … for the American Red Cross! So hammering the “he didn’t finish” theme allows Walker to point out he went to work for one of the best, most compassionate nonprofit organizations in the world. If anything, he’s the anti-Romney, which clearly challenges the liberal playbook.
