Nothing about how smart they are, but how they make their argument. To answer whether or not something is "strong" ('financials,' for example) comes down to "no it's not" -- "yes it is" -- "is not!" -- etc-- with the majority opinion actually trying to laugh the guy off. The "right" answer goes to the better showman. It's really E! television with the economy as the topic.

What's annoying is that millions of people will be influenced by this kind of nonsense. /buries head back in sand
