I guess I’m in the minority, but I don’t think he gives great speeches. I believe that most lefties think he gives great speeches, but to me they are vacant and boring and phony.

GOOD description of Obama’s speeches. He sounds like a revival tent preacher.

His delivery is great. There is just no content, no substance, not even the distant glimpse of a policy or an idea — except to raise taxes. Every time he talks about “change,” about that jar in the kitchen where I deposit pennies, and have a feeling he’s coming after it.

That's because you're reading too much into them. Your typical Obama fan sees only the pretty, flowery words and ignores the fact that he is saying essentially nothing at all of substance.

I agree. Hussein’s speeches are like an emotional pop song. The nice melody lures some in, mesmerizes others.
but when you read the lyrics without hearing the music, you see how meaningless it is. And as with many pop songs, they sound like they about love but are really rooted in hatred.

Well, let him wow and lure and mesmerize until he gets the nomination, then we can point out that the king is wearing no clothes, or that behind the sheep mask is the face of a wolf. .

He does a good job of delivering speeches written by somebody else. If you listen to the details the speeches are mostly cliches.

I wonder if Tony Robbins is one of his speech writers?

Do you listen to them, or read them? Obama seems to be good at saying nothing, but with good delivery. If you just read his speeches, you notice that there's nothing of substance

Democrats are enthralled with the guy. They've fallen in love...
