The guy is extremely bright. Experience in the Senate or in politics in general is something I'd almost see as a negative. He's a genuinely charasmatic guy. Quayle was not. Quayle always had you wondering WTF he was doing on the ticket. Maybe he was a life insurance policy for Bush Sr.?
It also pisses me off that liberal folks tend to call the President dumb. Dumb folks -- even with the help of daddy wouldn't be able to accomplish what he did. He was a VERY successful governor of Texas without the help of Cheney or the Republican establishment. I don't think he's been a half bad President in many respects either.

I also don't like when people call candidates names like dumb, stupid, or idiotic. Just because you disagree with someone, it doesn't mean you can be insulting.
