Note to Noonan: If you don't like the way the President's speeches are prepared and delivered, then apply for Mrs. James Carville's job, and write them yourself.

Actually Noonan gives him credit for being good at delivering speeches. I would much prefer Tony Snow writing his speeches than Mrs. Carville.

The President gave a great speech at the Library of Congress at the opening of the Churchill exibit. If the pols are smart, which they aren't, they would use it in the campaign.

Mary Matalin absolutely ran over Joe Lockhart today on the Today show.You want ratatat tat on policy?Mary can do it when she's "on".Joe sounded like he was describing Kerry and his flip flops instead of Bush.

Read the article again. The main thrust is: Democrats good at memorizing talking points and blathering about them in interviews, while Republicans are good at giving speeches that outline their philosophy.

I'm gonna take a wild stab and assume that you are being a bit critical of Noonan. But the law of unintended consequences is making you a wise poster indeed. I'd rather have one Peggy Noonan on staff right now than that room full of "yes men" he has now who put him on Meet the Press unprepared. This is a truly conservative person who knows what she's talking about.
We have two options between now and November. Listen to wise voices like hers. Or go the old Joe Stalin route and shoot anyone who has the temerity to say the Boss could do a lot better. Besides, the issue here is about putting the President in venues where he is admittedly weak. As incongruous as it may seem, strength truly is the ability to recognize your weaknesses.
