Bush is no intellectual but he is shrewd. I have heard he helped think of the Willie Horton ads and knows how to be a dirty political jungle fighter despite his "aw shucks" demeanor. He is handled very carefully but he also has a keen political instinct. That smirking demeanor is his ace in the hole, the act he knows many people will buy which gives a certain amount of teflon from reality. So whenever reality threatens his facade he turns on the smirk and self-deprecating wise cracks. It's like a magician distracting the viewer with one hand while he picks their pocket with the other. It is definitely shrewd, successful and a political gift. But it's also 100% phony. To defeat him you have to crack through the facade with evidence he cannot deny. Proof of unethical and even criminal conduct. Such evidence I'm sure is being gathered, though Bush is also a master of cover-up considering how he got away with the Harkness Energy scam.
