Betting on intelligence or stupidity in the electorate?

I was cruising Overheard in PDX a few mornings ago (yes, this is posted by autobot) and ran across this overheard conversation. The truth stings, and there are days when I hang my head and have to agree with this man's sentiment.

Woman: I work with Sarah Palin's Uncle, and I can't say anything because people around me are like "Oh yeah, she is sooo great!"

Man: Obama totally got outplayed on that VP pick. He's betting on the intelligence of the American electorate. Karl Rove is betting on the stupidity of the American Electorate and that is why they're going to win.
