Haven't you ever seen someone "patronize" or "condescend" to a person

with a smile?...It's a look that says "You are beneath me, but I'm going

to be nice. It's a way of saying "I'm better than you", which, of course,

he's clearly NOT. Obama has more brains (and heart) in his little finger than

Romney has in his entire being.
