Arnold Schwarzenegger, in his bid for the California governorship, is going to strengthen his candidacy and mitigate his lack of experience by surrounding himself with smart, knowledgeable, experienced people – exactly the strategy that Dubya used, in his successful presidential bid. Fair ’nuff.

The question *I* have is, why can’t we elect a smart person that surrounds himself with smart, knowledgeable, experienced people??? Is there a little known election rule that says a candidate can’t have more than a certain amount of IQ points distributed amongst himself and his advisors?? Why do we have to elect idiots?
