Clinton is the most intelligent candidate on either side now that Rudy is gone
I was thinking about that fact watching the PUKE debate last night and thinking of how Clinton would debate circles around the drooling rambling McCain. This would be a strong advantage, since voters know the country is FUCKED and needs brains more than ever.

20. Well, that explains a lot. Someone who thinks Rudy is intelligent,
Edited on Thu Jan-31-08 03:53 PM by NCevilDUer
who supports Clinton on the same criterium.

Obama is at least Clinton's equal, and head and shoulders above Guiliani (as is Clinton). You are letting your passions cloud your judgement.

EDIT: Oops. Last line directed at OP, not to you.

5. So apparently, the better they are at lying, the more intelligent?
Thanks for clarifying!

6. Even if I conceded that Giuliani is intelligent, it was a useless asset
as he demonstrated time and time again that he lacked judgment and the ability to analyze the big picture when it came to elevating his candidacy.

19. LOLWTF?
That's crazy talk, man.

And this is coming from someone who's leaning towards Hillary.

You think Giuliani is more intelligent than Hillary or Obama?

22. No doubt Hillary is intelligent
but more intelligent than Obama? Prove it. He graduated magna cum laude from Columbia and Harvard Law and was editor of the Law Review. She flunked her first bar exam. And then we come to judgment. She voted for the IWR. That's lousy judgment.

29. Don't forget
Obama also taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School for several years. I'm pretty sure you need to be intelligent for that sort of thing.

Personally, I don't think someone who introduces bills on flag burning and video games can be considered "the most intelligent".

23. WHAT?
This is the same Rudy who said, "Ron Paul won every debate?"

This is No-Dancing Giuliani, the Tyrant of Disney-in-Manhattan?

Intelligent compared to what? Tony Soprano?
