Obama has set the bar at the bottom of the Marianas Trench, so it would now be a challenge to find anyone who is too dumb to become President.
Perry's 2012 debate sneer---slapping down voters as "heartless" for not wanting to subsidize illegals--- was his self-serving notion that he was better than voters---but it exposed his political self-destruction.
The old political adage still applies---its not about how much "voters like the candidate"---it's about how much the "candidate appears to like the voters."
Heh---love it.
