I am concerned about her screeching voice. It is like chalk on a blackboard.

Believe me, you're not alone although you may feel like it when some get through with you.

You already talked about her voice once before....Sigh*

BTW Abraham Lincoln had a high-pitch Kentucky drawl

If that’s your hang up then so be it....it trivial to most folks who listen to the words and not concern about superficial things

Well, as long as you're basing your decision on a substantive issue./sarc. troll

Says you. I don't think "screeching" is even close to a real or fair description. I find her voice slightly nasal and very endearing (I don't want her to run for president). And even granting your assessment, it's surely just another of her critics' peeves that she doesn't give a damn about, which is yet another endearing quality.

It's a vicious cycle. The more they hate her for petty stupid crap like her supposed "screeching voice"...the less she cares...the more they hate her for something else...the less she cares...

I agree with that. Her voice pattern in her convention speech was perfect. When she gives her stump speech it comes off as screeching. If I may make a general criticism of women here it seems that women when they speak fail to realize that the period is their friend.

I agree her voice is annoying but this is a minor flaw.
She campaigned for John McCain, quit her job as Governor, interviews poorly, has a poor response for the utilization for nuclear weapons and is a easy lighting rod for liberal mockery. Time to stop wasting time and effort in supporting her for president.

Her voice does not bother me, but her position on certain issues does. In addition to a less than stellar record on government spending, there is support for the Law of the Sea Treaty, the enthusiastic response on the part of the Alaska National Educational Association to McCain's selection of her as his running mate and her support for the Bush bailout. In a reflection on the latter issue, she has been quoted in her book as claiming that the House Republicans who opposed the bailout "hurt the cause". Putting her inexperience aside, I simply do not see her as part of the GOP revolt against big government.
