I have always liked Sara Palin. But it is obvious to me (my wife too) her presentation is getting worse and worse (too screechy and theatrical) and her message is getting too muddled (by her attempts at zingers and humor, many of which fall flat).

I don't know what has happened in the past few years, but this is not the same old Sarah Palin that rocked everybody at the '08 Convention and energized so much of the base for that loser, McCain. Maybe she is just trying too hard to rock the crowd and maybe trying too hard to be funny?

She isn't going to attract a lot of voters she already doesn't have by what she says and how she is saying it. She needs to hire a good speech coach, right away, if she is going to compete with anybody - including that accomplished screechaholic and certified harpy, Hitlery.

At the Freedom Summit, she was not playing to the crowd. Not everyone there was an SP supporter. She was laying out a potential gameplan that was designed for closer examination IN PRINT LATER. This particular speech was not a typical stump speech. It seem to be designed, to some extent, to inform her potential staff and team members to get ready...it's coming down.

Her new speech pattern with her SINCERE gestures in this presentation was tailored to deliver specific information to specific people and not just to persuade potential voters and supporters who were in attendance there. I'm a voice coach. I pay attention to how she's doing. She nailed it Saturday in Iowa.
