8. Obama hasn't given a great speech since 04'
and why they use that "one timer" in his political ads..

In fact what is strange, the verbiage they use from the 04' speech indicates there is One America, when essentially Obama's campaign platform (no GLBT, no use for Boomers, pro-religion) divides America.!! Now there is a Lee Atwater axiom personified!

3. I feel sorry for Bill and Hillary
they've been dragged through the mud so much by the republicans, they seem to always be on the defensive and always negative.

4. As long as the speech giver can do better than Bushnazi, that's good enough for me.

You didn't even watch it - you're just piling on as usual.

Facts aren't necessary when you're already filled with hate.

11. Oh for fuck's sake.....
drop the stupid and childish atwater/rove meme. Politicians have been doing that forever.

Politics wasn't invented by Atwater and Rove.

14. Obama should be
a preacher if he is a great speech giver. Or self help guru. Not a President

27. Wrong. Our greatest presidents have often been our greatest speech givers.
The ability to inspire is crucial. How about these speech givers?




Of course, there is always the other end of the spectrum - the inability to even be coherent:

24. One thing is certain
The atmosphere at Obama's speeches are much more energetic than Clinton's. Obama gets the crowed really anxious and motivated where Clinton's crowds seem engaged, but lacking any kind of excitement and determination.

31. That's what the media tells me.
I think he appeals to self-absorbed, high-income/fucked if the economy really tanks, high-end wine drinkers, myself.

I know doctors and PhD's who support Clinton, along with working people. The only Obama supporters I know are people who are not too intellectually rigorous, to be plain, and a load of "kids" who don't know how he comes down on the issues.
