The American Voter


Kevin D. Williamson:
It is easy to slip into cheap Menckenism on the subject of American voters, but they are, it often seems, insanely stupid. It is a puzzle how Americans, who are the world’s smartest engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs, and firefighters, allow themselves to get took time after time by the half-bright collection of swindlers and criminals who aspire to rule us. That they also permit themselves to be condescended to by men such as Barack Obama and Jonathan Gruber is mysterious, too, and, contra Chris Cillizza, not to conservatives alone.
