Are (Most? All?) Comment Spammers Stupid?

I just noticed a series of identical comments on different posts. The comment goes like this:

"The article has a great insight. I greatly enjoyed looking through the topic and found it very informative one for people like me."

This is obviously an attempt to sound "natural". One comment like this might get through, but 7 identical comments on different posts? How dumb can you be?

By the way, comments are welcome. But make them real.

LOL...yes sometimes it's obvious that people are just trying to get links. I do that too, but I also try to make sure I write something of value. I think any comment is good because it's feedback that people are actually reading and enjoying your blog entries. So even if they are identical, at least you have one fan. :)
