Even Vivien Leigh did a better job of faking a Southern accent than ol' Hillary.

She must be tone-deaf, she lived in Arkansas for quite awhile and ought to be able to fake it better than that.

But aside from that, her voice is just UGLY. Ugly, ugly, ugly. Screechy, flat vowels, pushing, nasal . . . sort of a "how not to talk" lesson for everybody.

And she was from Scotland.

This is so true. It is hard for me to think that the American people will want to listen to even five minutes of a Hillary campaign speech. Her flat vowels (which AnAmericanMother notes) just grind upon one's ear. The screechy voice tonality also doesn't help things. I can't recall ever hearing such an irritating public speaker.

You kind of wonder why it never occurred to her to have taken speech lessons years ago if the Presidency was her ambition.

When I was a high school student I wanted so bad to be a radio announcer and accordingly I enrolled in every speech-related course in high school and college that I could find. All of them accented the "rounding" of the vowel sounds. Not hard to do with practice and the results are remarkable.

Let's face it: Hitlery can mess up everything she does. And I'm really hoping she messes up her campain so badly that she's laughed out of the running.

She is tone deaf. When she was caught singing the Star Spangled Banner on an open mike it was clear that she is completely tone deaf. So, it isn't surprising that she doesn't do accents well.
