Not saying that America is any better...but my impression is that the EU's talent pool is very shallow in the "good at facing reality" category. And that the voters have long preferred that state of affairs.

Of course, if suddenly elected, politicians from that puny pool might prove themselves painfully shallow in "competence" category.
