Yesterday, I looked at the 10 Dumbest Republican Quotes of 2012. Today I am taking a look at the smartest Democratic quotes for the same year. It is pretty obvious that the Democrats were as good as saying smart things as the Republicans were saying dumb things. The list is big, and it isn’t easy to pare it down to just ten. But I’ll have a go at it nevertheless.

Without doubt, the Democratic National Convention is a goldmine of brilliant utterances. President Obama was at the top of his game and it is no wonder that it is the president who dominates my list. Michelle Obama, Joe Biden, John Kerry, and Elizabeth Warren also all make the cut. But Frankly, even a Top 20 list would not be long enough to include every worthy quote from the DNC alone.
