That's because he was angry. His passion and anger are what made the speech so effective. He was not talking about a bond issue for a school, he was talking about war and the security of his family. He is angry that the Dems don't have the judgment to prosecute the war against terror and call our soldiers occupiers instead of liberators.
You know, about the "zell too angry" thing...
The "talking heads" and those of us who are really really tuned into politics have a very different perspective about these types of thing than the run of hte mill populace.
Just as the twins silliness last night reached a certain group of people effectively (though regarded as somewhat "improper" by certain others) Zell's speech will reach a certain group, and a very important one at that. That group may well leave the Demodog party permanently after Zell's speech tonight. Others may scoff, but they will not outweigh those who agree with Zell.

Hey Mack! In NY maybe they like pate and brie, but out here in flyover country (WI, PA, OH, FL, etc.) we like our meat red. We say grace and we say ma'am and if you ain't into that then we don't give a damn. This is the stuff that Reagan dems LOVE!
