I watched the last probably 5 minutes of it. I didn’t think it was terrible.

What makes me absolutely crazy is how the media and even folks like Krauthammer talk about how eloquent Obama is. It’s the same thing they always said of Clinton. I just don’t get it. It’s all BS and anyone with a brain can see that it is.

You have to look at substance over delivery. Sure, in comparison to W they are eloquent but at least W had some real meat in his not-so-charismatic way of speaking.

Obama and Clinton are 2 of the biggest bullsh!t artists out there and many of us can’t be fooled into thinking that the delivery makes what they say great.

Give Obama a teleprompter and ok fine, he does alright. Take it away and he can barely put a coherent, cohesive sentence together.

What that amount to...he reads/memorizes well. Big whoop

While I didn’t think that Jindal’s speech was worth so much complaining about, I do remember that the first time I heard Obama. I think it was at the Democrat Convention, I put down my sewing and looked up, saying, “Wow, who is this guy, he can really speak. I’ll bet he has a future.” Note, this is not saying anything about the content of what he was saying, just the delivery.
