Not sure that stupid is the most important quality, butan ad might read something like this:
Politician wanted:

must be able to lie with straight face, cry on demand, and suspend disbelief at will.
WordPerfect, Excel not necessary, but must be proficient with Teleprompter and have working knowledge of Twitter. Fashionista wife and moppets a plus…back taxes no problem. To apply, scrub your Facebook and Myspace pages, doublecheck your club memberships for politically offensive associations, obtain necessary confidentiality agreement signatures from associates, send any illegal household workers packing, and refresh Botox as necessary…
