Dems beaten, Republicans now begin to atack their own center

I think his feigned ignorance is more annoying. I mean, you can't fault him for his real ignorance.

Plus, I think his dogged insistance that he isn't feigning ignorance (like he insistence that he answers direct questions) is just obnoxious. Like a little kid who keeps saying "I know you are but what am I?"

Add to that the fact that he actually gets some little thrill simply from being irritating. Funny, insightful, or pertinent, if they ever happened would take a back seat to annoying. That's the main, perhaps the only reason he comes here.

He's a punk. That's way worse than being stupid. That's why I didn't go too far when he talked about how if he lost his airline job he'd become a fireman.
