To: greenspirit who wrote (134190 ) 3/30/2001 1:43:08 AM From: Kevin Rose Respond to Excellent points. I would go further, and say that politicians have a nasty tendency to view the general public as, well, stupid. Since most of the audience appears to be conservative here, I'll take an example that most have probably seen (we have a tendency to have a blind eye to the faults of our own party). Al Gore reminds me of a kindergarten teacher. Practically everything he says is condenscending; I get the feeling he talks sssllloooowwwly so that we can understand him. He repeats himself over and over, and can't seem to move on from his favorite subjects. The real winner was in the town hall-type debate, where someone asked something like "how come our politicians don't listen to us", and his response was to ignore the question and go back to AGAIN repeat some other pet point of his.
