"dumb rhetoric" - would that be things like "6 years of mismanagement (with two more to go)"

I think the thing that galls me the most when I see things like that is the fact that after 4 years, he not only got to keep his job, he got it by more votes and a larger margin than the first time around.

Guys, the one you didn't want being in charge does NOT amount to "mismanagement".

The guy who won doing things the way he said he was going to, although it may be unheard of in politics these days, is NOT mismanagement.

Hmm.  It seems to me that 6 years of mismanagement (with two more to go)
warrants an evaluation.  I sure hope they start now in what is sure to be a
long process of "unstacking the deck."  It sure would be nice if they could
keep the dumb rhetoric to a minimum while doing it, but that's probably too
much to hope for, and to me not all that important.
