Since any politician will ask you a loaded question, it's not Q&A, it's a debate. And for that matter, I'm terribly surprised that people didn't do their homework and study why they picked a certain point of view before supporting it.
I would be even more surprised if politicians realize, "Hey, I sounded like a dumbass, maybe I should figure out why I'm a republican before I get pwned in the ass by someone who has a photographic memory"
