Perry, Cain, Gingrich, Bachmann: The "gaffes" of the Republican presidential field. - Slate Magazine ~ Christopher Hitchens

I wonder how they came around thinking they'd be good candidates, certainly not on their knowledge of much other than money grubbing and smacking people upside the head. Perhaps they figured there were enough wealthy and religious to get their backs only they didn't realize that many of the wealthy and religious are intelligent beings and would never go for what they are offering.

They cater to the religious right. It's surprising how many people will deny evolution even with all of the evidence. I sincerely hope you're right about the wealthy, religious people being intelligent enough to see through the GOP campaign. Sadly, I think a lot of people buy their bullcrap.

Regardless of how bad the GOP nominees appear to be I never underestimate the ignorance and under-education of low information voters to continually vote against their best interests.

Still recovering from the fact that Bush was re-elected. That the 2010 mid term elections happened. That Gingrich is leading in most polls, etc. etc....

Yeah...me too. Not to mention the brainwashed voter.

There is plenty of ignorance to go around. What I am seeing in some young people however is friendly persuasion in their approach to debating issues that some usually won't budge from. I believe we are a more intelligent society as we have access to so much information. We are humans and we evolve as fast as we are able and some are a bit slower than others to catch on. I believe we can open more eyes with acceptance and these candidates are not at all about acceptance.

Sadly, there are plenty of wealthy Americans who rarely ever take the time to turn on the news at all. These are the ones who's interests lie in fiercely fighting to protect their money from any change in the tax codes. You can expect nothing but an across the board partisan ballot from these folks. Financially speaking, they've got it good right now - and the GOP promises to make it better - and that's all they care about.
