But since most of the media is in the tank for these bozos it'll be unlikely it is portrayed that way.

What's with the grunting?

Even when his voice changes pitch a bit, he is still startlingly dull. I had no idea in big speeches he was THIS boring.

And teaching, like in church. He is talking as if to a bunch of stupid people...but they can't even see it as they lap up his words.

All Ryan's kvetching about Obama is pretty lame.
I have yet to hear one original positive and
constructive idea out of these GOPers.
They're a bunch of Debbie Downers.
Who needs 'em.

at a car dealership.. I fucking poke my ears out with a pencil if I had to sit in that hall and listen to him. He's so boring and devoid of personality.

So he is defeated in two elections at the same time.

Maybe if they describe him as a used car dealer it will turn enough voters off in the district.
