18 hr days for 18 months????? come on f/t college students that work do that.... mothers do that....... some average Americans do that.
And exactly how hard is an Obama 18 hr day? Is he digging ditches? Is he out there writing these speeches by himself? How much of that 18 hr day is truly out in public and the rest in a comfy cozy private jet, hotel room, drinking espresso with a Time Magazine reporter?
To say he was too tired to know that there were 50 states, and excuse that???? Come on now, that's sheer idiocy.

IMO, the point is that there is not a candidate (any time in recent history) who would meet your unreasonable standard of NEVER making a "gaffe" in a campaign speech or face being called a "fucking idiot".
There are certainly reasons why many will not for vote for Obama, but this one is based purely on emotion and a vitriolic dislike for the man. Thats cool, you can vote for or against any candidate for any reason...just dont try to pass it off as a reasoned approach to your decision making.
There is just no rationale for this argument unless the same standard is applied to all candidates...in which case....why not suggest just calling off the election....they are all "fucking idiots,"
