The "good-enough brain" part is actually understatement. People with President Bush's academic and other accomplishments (dullards don't graduate from Harvard's Business School, can't learn to fly a fighter jet and don't have a net worth of some $16 million earned by themselves) have very high IQ's.
This country is at war. The adults are back in charge. The dems think that we're just a bunch a racist, anti-poor, anti-homeless, anti-black, anti-minority, anti-queer, anti-welfare, anti-environment, anti-union rednecks. Then it comes to saving the country, all those groups and their incessant "gimmie, gimmie" whining are irrevelant.
Just some food for thought - Which 20th century presidents had/have the highest IQs?
Bill Clinton and Richard Nixon.
Not meaning to slight the intelligent here, but the author says Bush is intelligent enough, and it clearly bears out in the analysis.
The fact is, little changed. the different camps are so even that most of the Congress remained the same as it was.
The Republican attack across the country was focused on those areas where an attack with maximum available resources was possible and given some measure of potential success. Maximum available is different from overwhelming force/resources that was not possible. Some of those focused attacks were successful and some were repulsed.
The success rate was barely adequate. A followon attack will be made in LA to increase the total success.
Where the attacks were successful, the number of minds changed was small. Most voters voted the previously entrenched positions. A few voters were in fact frightened and voted for personal physical security over personal economic security.
The Republicans did not win an overwhelming victory. They gained control and now must act to change the minds of entrenched Rats as well as more of those in the middle with no permanent convictions.

Why is it that even the lowest form of animals learn from their mistakes, yet the Dumb-O-Loser can't learn from theirs?
I believe that they believe that the American voters are all morons and need to be told how to vote.
The same tired,old tricks that worked for the perverted klinton era is still being used. They are allowing this vile, lying, perverted pig to make fools of them while he continues to recieve huge sums of money. They are also setting themselve up to again make the same mistakes by fawning over his also perverted "wife".
They have no new ideas, programs or direction.
I can only recommemnd that all Dumb-O-Loser leadership be required to study the lower form of life, see how they learn from their mistakes and see if they can also learn.
But then again, never mind it's to much fun watching you eat your own and totally destroy yourselves.
"Bill Clinton and Richard Nixon."
You missed one. Jimmuh Cahtah was right up there in the brains department (in fact, Walter Crankcase said that ole Jimmuh was the smartest president he had ever seen, being able to digest and retain huge masses of detail). Of course, Jimmuh was an incompetent president....which just goes to show that leadership ability doesn't necessarily accrue to the smartest lad on the block.
No. That implies that voting democrat would somehow be good for the economy and voting Republican would somehow be harmful to the economy. That's just a democrat myth.

You are correct in this statement but may misunderstand my other point. I am considering the microeconomy of personal finances. Macro economic considerations are irrelevant for the few I think are involved in the recent election.
The challange on the macroeconomy is more fundamental and moves the base. That is, to change the 43% entrenched in addition to the 12% in the middle.
Having a high IQ doesn't mean diddly squat without the common sense to drive it. My cousin's IQ is off the charts... but he works at Pizza Hut (40 yrs old). He was one semester away from a Master's in Physics before dropping out of the "establishment". Now......most people I know would call that STUPID. *chuckle*
Bush is “the millionaire next door” sort of guy. Everyone knows he has it but he acts just like the rest of us. He doesn’t make us feel small or carry even a whiff of an “I am SO much better then you” attitude. Your nice middle class son probably could ask his daughter for a date without daddy getting upset.
To put it in a nutshell, he likes us and we return the favor high IQ, big bank account and all. As opposed to those mentioned who have very high IQ’s (maybe) but give us the impression that they hold us in contempt.
