He was talking about Obama’s speech style. And Krauthammer is right. Obama is in a league of his own as was Reagan.

I just don’t get what all the people rave about Obama’s skill in speaking. He grates on my nerves, and seems to be speaking down to the peasants. I see NO reason to equate him with Regan AT ALL......

"Obama is in a league of his own as was Reagan."

I just don't see it, never have. When I listen to Obama, I see an arrogant, preachy, narcissist, who is not nearly as brilliant as everyone says, and who looks like a goofy, big-eared 13-year-old on the way to his first dance. The alleged charisma totally escapes me. He's a bit like Al Gore, talking down to the audience as if they're children, but in a baritone instead of that semi-lispy, retardo Gore voice.

He is CLEVER, which is not the same as brilliant, and it is easy to be clever - and deceptive (lying) and get away with it when the media is covering for you and is in your hip pocket.

I am with you — his speech style is one of I am above all and he NEVER looks at the camera but at his teleprompters the whole time. I bet ZERO couldn’t wing a speech like Sarah and Rudy did at the Convention when their teleprompters messed up.

Have never gotten where they say ZERO is a good speaker. He rambles and rambles and when you reflect on what he said, you have a hard time figuring it out. To me a good speaker is one who can speak without using a teleprompter.

One of the best speeches I have ever heard was George Allen when he spoke to the OK GOP Convention the other year. He never looked down but look at the audience, spoke from the heart and no teleprompter. He was AWESOME to hear speak in person and probably why the MSM spent so much time going after him.
