Sorry, I like my candidates to be at least minimally competent on the issues. It appears that your standards aren’t so high, apparently you only require that the candidate be attractive and personable...knowledge is optional...like Barack Obama, eh?
If you actually believe someone can become a governor without this amorphous "minimum competence," your "standards" aren't informed enough to mean anything.
For example, I have unfortunately found myself arguing with grown men who really believed George W. Bush took us into Iraq to avenge his daddy's failure. And while they have the right to hold any opinion the wish, they don't have the right to be taken seriously by those of us who don't find Jerry Springer, riveting.
