Just how smooth and articule is your governor? Does he seem to have any depth? Try to be nonpartisan in your response, however tough that may be. :)
I must say that I don't watch a lot of local TV. I get news via the internet and radio. I'd say he's smooth enough without being Clintonian. He's got that non-abrasive whitebread midwestern style. He doesn't make much of an impression, actually. He's just sort of there. Not at all in the Harkin mode.
