Rubio is definitely a "candidate for idiots". He happened to be on after I walked back into the room where the TV is and indeed he was spewing stupid stuff. OTOH, being in the tech world I have a critique of Obama's Pep Talk where he talked about more training in the technical field so the country would lead again. Well anyone who knows the field would know we have plenty of training available and that isn't the problem. It's the cutting of arts programs that have hurt our innovative lead. Where the hell do you think you are going to get creative people if you cut those? Many will apply that creativity to technical fields. It doesn't mean that you graduate people in arts fields but those opportunities need to be there if you want innovative people. Otherwise you just get "tech mechanics." I'm listening to (though I find it harded to listen to him) Obama fan Thom Hartmann saying that Obama "knocked one out of the park last night." Geez, there was nothing there most intelligent liberals don't already know. It was proforma at best. Thom is just a Democrat and probably would even be a Frank Underwood fan. In fact I saw Obama's speech as delivering it to a chamber full of "Frank Underwoods."
