But here is an interesting fact, some who are challenged by being blind or deaf can have better "ears" than those who are fully functioning.
So it goes here.
My argument is simple and complicated. Just think of the person/minister/lecturer/dinner guest/politician who talks and talks and talks, and has no idea people have turned them off. Listeners in the pews or classroom or lecture hall start squirming, looking at the time, and rolling their eyes. The person who is in the middle of this dynamic, has no "ear" or enough sense to wind it up and finish.
Why you say, does this happen?
Ego. When people are so full of themselves, they think the whole earth revolves around them, their opinions and their person hood, they talk instead of listen. The lack of an "ear" is not tied to intelligence. Some of the smartest people in the world lack wisdom, and the ability to tap into that special ability to hear. So much time has been invested in their ego, that they long ago, starved out wisdom.
It is my opinion that the manner in which campaigns are run, is reflective of the ability to hone hearing skills and thus develop the "ear". A safe cracker must have a deft and soft hand to open the safe, and waits for that right moment to "hear" the tumbler clicking.
Winners have one thing in common. The ability to shift gears, change their weight on the skis, adjust their swing, change their pitch, adjust to the defense, concentrate on their performance, and find the note that resonates.
It matters not, how well you can read the notes of the music, if the orchestra you are playing with makes an unplanned for change, and you don't hear it.
It is my opinion, that from the beginning, Hillary has not demonstrated that she is able to "hear" and sense the ebb and flow of the changing dynamic. She is static, autocratic and is like a thoroughbred running a race with blinders on.
She is so focused, and working so hard, that she is guesstimating, rather than estimating. It matters not how smart, or how much experience a candidate has, it is not enough to carry the day without an "ear".
She is listening to herself, rather than the people. It is too sad that someone so smart, doesn't "get it."
