Quote of the day comes from Clinton, Iowa:

Former Air Force General Tony McPeak warmed up the crowd saying that Obama possessed all the key qualities of a top military leader: reliability, authenticity, good judgment and intelligence:

"We've been conducing a colossal experiment for the last six years to see if it matters very much if the guy in the White House isn't that smart."

[whoops of laughter..]

"And, the results are in."
