Seems like people who dress themselves, hold down jobs and otherwise seem completely normal aren't too hard to fool, either.

Did I say "almost tanked"? I meant "almost destroyed beyond repair".

And I guess they don't remember ten years ago, when a terrible Republican administration that looks like a bunch of geniuses compared to the current lot almost tanked the economy.
