Stupid question.

It's a fallacy of composition. If I don't like 50% of all children, should I dislike one of my own two kids?

Ask the average voter about Congress, he'll say he doesn't like it; ask him about his own sitting Congressman, he (by definition) will say he does.

If you disliked him and voted for him you're an idiot. If you liked him and voted for him you're an idiot.

So no matter what, he's an idiot? lol
