He has a 2:1 from Oxford and a Masters degree from the LSE.
Maybe he isn't a complete intellectual diaster?
Someone who has those qualifications, who comes across as poorly (and lacking in intellectual sharpness) as Milliband does, suggests hard work and a complete lack of a social life, rather than genuine, innate talent was the prime factor in those qualifications. Nothing wrong with those characteristics, far from it. I greatly admire people who make the most of whatever talent they possess, but we're talking of someone running to be Prime Minister, not soneone about to undertake a second interview for the role of regional sales manager looking after a team of IT reps in North and West Yorkshire.
Stupid? Demonstrably not.
Impressively intelligent? I would also say not.
