BTW - I would call Matthew Hooton, Rob Hosking, Rodney Hide, Shoeshine (to name just a few) good (and some outstanding) journalists and opinion writers. Are they smart? Well, they are smart enough to know that the world is larger than its left-wing. True - not all of them are likely to vote for National, but as you know, there is at least one other good alternative to vote for (ask Rodney, if you want to know more;)).
Let me guess ... I think your real problem is that you believe only Left-wing people can be smart. Risky assumption if we look into history ...
