All I know is that from the one post I saw him make in the Cafe is that he thought Bush beat Kerry in one of the debates. Which is the mark of a very stupid person. The thing was the arguments he made about why Bush won were VERY persuasive and almost even convinced me! But then I realized that you could only believe Bush won the debates by talking about helping "small businesses" if you were stupid enough to believe a word he said. Bush was a well-known liar even back then. Matt Wilson was a stupid person's idea of what a smart person sounds like. I am still amused at how long he fell for the joke that the Simpsons movie would be live-action. He refused to do a mea culpa about being had because of his ego and a lot of people (inluding me) made fun of him for that. That was one of the few times he refused to respond to anyone ragging on him.

Off-topic slightly, but do you know the thing I hated most about John Kerry (besides him conceding the election too early?) He made a statement before his debates that Bush was an excellent debater and won every debate he had ever been in. He was trying to downplay expectations and he did so by denying reality. I thought is was a HUGE insult to Ann Richards and Al Gore who creamed that idiot in every debate he was ever in.
