I don't know where your "many studies" are that show college educated people are more liberal, but here's the demogaphic table from a recent peer-reviewed survey from the Pew Research Center that shows clearly Republicanism correlates positively to level of education.

If you scan down to the education stats, my fact-loathing friend, you'll see that the more education one has, the higher the percentage of Republicans there are. Then next to that is the Democratic numbers, which trend in the opposite direction. The sample size is over 19,000 by the way. That ain't a chicken feed study. Margin of error for that size a sample is 0.7%



The findings are these: that among those with less than high school educations, 20% are Republican and 41% are Democratic. Among college grads, they two parties are about evenly split, but those are the Republicans' highest numbers and the Democrats' lowest numbers.

Note also the income trends (the richer you are the Republicanner you are) which is obviously tied to education in a pretty big way. If it helps you to understand why all the smart people aren't as Democratic as you, remember that smart people make more money, and smart is not the same as wise.
