Pataki is a nice guy, so I hate to say this, but his speaking style is just a little too close to Al Gore's.

Asked if he mentions Kerry, Gergen says Kerry's name "is woven throught the speech."

Like a web. kerry is trapped in W.'s web. he can't escape, and W. is biding his time...

"Not as boring as he usually is. "

This is probably the best speech I've ever heard Pataki make.
