A good point

I was watching random clips of the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, and he said something about the MA election that I think is a very good point.  Pardon the language: 

It's not that the Democrats are playing checkers while the Republicans are playing chess; its that the Republicans are playing chess while the Democrats are in the nurses' office because they glued their balls to their thighs.

Can I hear a hearty Amen?
