Not true, blatant flamebait.

I think of it as substance over style. Talking a good game does not make one smart, but style seems to be highest on the democrat criteria list.

Hey, the dems aren't the ones that tapped an actor to be president.
I seem to recall a certain democratic president who was all for abolishing style in the name of saving money, and he was hounded mercilessly for it by republicans.

Kerry presented himself as more than he was, and that was enough for people of average intelligence to think he was 'smart'.

Kerry is capable of stringing more than five sentences together without stumbling or losing his train of thought. If that makes him appear more intelligent than your guy, then perhaps you should find a new guy.

I don't want leaders who are good politicians, I want leaders who get the job done.

Agreed. But to get the job done, a leader must have a clear concept of what that job is. Bush. . . not so much.
