"This isn't elitism."

Oooh. Right.

"It is just an acknowledgment that Rs tend to talk over the heads of most people while Ds tend to mind-numbingly weak on the issues. "

Umm, sure.

" Just look at this thread."

I have. I see a lot of black and white, simplistic arguments "backed" with fallacious arguments, hand waving and spin from the right. And then there is _less who crafts long posts (mis)using big words that are often mis-spelled and in self-contradictory statements. And jlallen, whose posts consist of 'LOL' and personal attacks. Where economic policy consists of 'tax cuts'. And everything is couched in 5 second sound bites.

Not to mention the march of the straw men.

There is no talking over heads, but a lot of lowest common denominator.
