I wish Bush could give a speech like that 'off the cuff'.

If you listen to it, Cheney did not do it off the cuff. That said, he is a hell of a speaker (does not seem to know how to pull his punches, and that is just fine with me).

W is best when he speaks from the heart. Last night, C-SPAN2 showed a meeting he held with small business owners about medical savings accounts and association health plans. The President was just great---relaxed, bantering with the people, emphatic in what these initiatives can mean to small businesses and employees in particular, and the economy in general, and always positive and optimistic about the country. A welcome contrast to his opponent, Senator John F. Kerry (D-AQ).
