Number-14 seed Harvard's 68-62 defeat of Number-3 seed New Mexico on Friday night astonished many red-state Republicans who get all their information about universities from sports news.
Reactions on the "Fox Nation" Web board ranged from astonishment, to denial, to disbelief. "Bush-Cheney 2004" posted the question, "How could a loser school, this 'Harvard,' or whatever it's called, beat such a powerhouse like New Mexico?"
The latest Ass-Munchin' [Rasmussen?] poll showed 52% of Republicans had never even heard of Harvard before their win Friday night--the same percentage who don't believe in global warming.
