[quote=Anonymous]The system is anything BUT a meritocracy. It's mostly based on pandering to the lowest common denominator, creating or stoking antagonisms between people who didn't previously realize they should be against somebody else, and greasing the right paws in return for campaign contributions. It's also increasingly anti-intellectual, and heaps scorn on technocrats and educated people. So you are surprised because...? Also, I really would dispute the notion that Santorum or Bachmann are competent. There is a wide gulf between competence and embarrassing stupidity and incompetence, notwithstanding the "eyes glazed over with incomprehension" benchmark set during W's reign. [/quote]
