Heard this on NPR today, and did little a Internet search and apparently the Obama and Clinton supporters can also be known by what coffee they drink... this is from The Boston Globe...
"Coffee and class have merged into political shorthand as commentators, campaign operatives, and bloggers alike try to make sense of this highly caffeinated campaign season. In several primaries and caucuses, (Barack) Obama has shown strength among white-collar professionals with a college degree -- the so-called "Starbucks Democrats" -- while (Hillary) Clinton has won support from blue-collar workers with a high school degree, dubbed "Dunkin' Donuts Democrats. "
I like both Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts, but I have been known to frequent Starbucks more..
