I would think Obama has an higher IQ than McCain. McCain really isn't that smart. He isn't GW Bush dumb though. |

Eh, those tests are never really that accurate. Unless they each took the same exact test on the same day, it doesn't really tell you anything. |

Reports said Bush had an IQ 144 back when he was running. |

They give some guidance in that you can generally say a person has a high intelligence or a low one -- but to compare actual numbers is kind of silly. Besides, you can learn how to take these tests, just like you can learn how to get better scores on the SAT by learning how to read the questions and narrow down your choices. |

But like I said, all that really tells you is that both of us are above average. It doesn't mean I'm smarter than you by 3 points. If we had taken the tests on a different day we would have gotten different scores. |

Quote: Democratic Presidential Candidate IQ Scores Barack Obama - Estimated IQ Score Range: 121 - 137 Hillary Rodham Clinton - IQ Score = 140 Joe Biden - IQ Score = 121 Chris Dodd's IQ Score = 123 John Edwards' IQ Score = 124 Mike Gravel - Estimated IQ Score Range: 115 - 122 Dennis Kucinich's Estimated IQ Score Range: 116 - 126 Bill Richardson's Estimated IQ Score Range: 124 - 133 Republican Presidential Candidate IQ Scores Sam Brownback's IQ Score of 110 Rudy Giuliani - IQ Score of 123. Mike Huckabee's Estimated IQ Score Range: 110 - 125 Duncan Hunter's Estimated IQ Score Range: 120 - 130 John McCain's Estimated IQ Score Range: 115 - 125 Ron Paul's Estimated IQ Score Range: 130 - 140 Mitt Romney - IQ Score = 122 Tom Tancredo - IQ Score = 119 Fred Thompson - IQ Score = 123 First of all, they're estimates based most likely on speech patterns and such. None of this is even based on real IQ tests. Secondly, there's no one exceptional in the group relative to the others except for Clinton's score, and the upper ranges of Obama's and Ron Paul's. So by one method's estimates of scores of a test which measures intelligence (to an extent) there are only slight variations. It's quite a silly thing to go by. |

McCain is a decently smart man. One can not call him a stupid idiot like Bush really... You can hate him all you want but he is not stupid. |
