An exit poll breakdown on Fox's site shows that even among white college graduates he had a lead (49/45).
I think the age and race breakdowns might be more telling; he loses every age demographic up to 30-39, then wins every age demographic after. Hillary has big leads in every race demographic except white, which Trump wins by a considerable margin. I think that when it all shakes out we'll see that Clinton got far fewer young and non-white voters excited enough to go to the polls. People are saying that the nation is "more divided than we thought" but I think it's just as divided as it ever was, but some key constituencies had no stomach to vote for Clinton and stayed home.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
