“Language guru: Obama speech too ‘professorial’ for his target audience”

Oh, give me a break! The only thing he’s professional at is prevarication.

This is not true but even if it were, the implications would be clear. The admin has highly paid speechwriters and managers whose only job is to access the audience and deliver the goods. I am a professor of 33 years duration who teaches at all levels (undergrad, graduate, medical professional degree and general public lectures). I have to access different audiences daily and adjust daily. The best “message” undelivered is just another way to say... FAIL, i.e., Robert Green-type “surehanded goaltending”.

So it was because of the style and not the substance (or lack thereof)? Typical leftist hogwash.
