Obama and Matthews are intellectual midgets. Romney and Ryan are two of the sharpest minds in public life in American today. There is no way to disguise this fact.
You’re exactly right about that.
It is typical though if you assess the traditional differences between Liberal and Conservative candidates.
Liberals are ALWAYS at the level of emotion and make their pitch at THAT level....they are very soft on facts and logic. Partly because their base do not demand this of them, do not value it and do not hold nominees to any kind of consistency with the demonstrated record.
Conservatives are usually, to one degree or another, substance-centered and logically impeccable in their presentation and views.
Since it is impossible to fudge on whether or not you are in possession of the facts or logic...Liberals must manipulate the moderator or the debate process in order to even stand a chance.
Nothing on earth can hide or obscure knowledge and facts... so Conservatives ALWAYS have the edge there. It is not something a person can fudge... like O has been enabled to do for his entire life.
More than ever, this was painfully obvious last night. It had to happen... but I wish it happened long ago.
O is: dead but not buried and like all unburied things, he is a problem for the living.
