Originally Posted By Mrs ElderP I do like her speaking style... I think she's a good public speaker, with a top notch writing team to be sure. She's no Obama, but she's no Nancy Poloci either (in terms of oratorial skill). Let me add that I'm only listening, not watching...

Originally Posted By mawnck >>Did she just call herself a pit bull?<< No, she called ALL Hockey Moms dogs. Obviously a speech written for the home crowd. And perhaps it's wishful thinking, but I think she's coming across as a loony dingbat. The audience's rabid reaction to every comma isn't helping the cause. Is it wishful thinking? Next Democrat ad: 20 seconds of this speech, 6 seconds of Russians marching across Georgia, 4 seconds of Obama approving this message. Election over.

Originally Posted By Mr X I think they should stop pre-releasing these speeches. It has become so ridiculous, it's pretty obvious the audience is waiting for their "big applause" points..and they blew her whole delivery on that mayor vs community organizer zinger. So scripted, it's pathetic.
