All the MSM will be shocked at how well Palin does in the VP debate.
Because the technology for ear pieces and wireless transmitters is SO much more advanced than it was in the Kerry/Bush debate. There won't be any wires to draw suspicion this time.
9. It's not a matter of pitch . . . voices of any pitch (within reason) . . .
Can be appealing. But Palin has a sort of Emily Latella, back of the palate, burr that many people find unpleasant. I'm not the only one to point it out.
20. This is not a hyper-serious thread. Thin ice, perhaps . . .
but also not so big a deal.
A tad more seriously, Hilary probably should have worked on her nasality -- it would have made her a more effective campaigner. You don't think Obama has listened to himself a million times so he could find the resonant center of his voice that gives it such power?
23. If so . . . why not? As the current occupant has proven over and over again . . .
Being effective as a public speaker is a major component of success. I'm not saying that Obama doesn't have a "good instrument" (as they say in the theatre), but that every politician needs to pay serious attention to such things -- even to the point of voice lessons.
18. YEP - they ALREADY have said it is a no-win for him ...
They have both said he can't beat up on her AND as you noted, basically said that all she has to do is make it through without passing out and they will say it is a win for her.
14. They're going to spend the next month drilling her on how to use the thing
properly, as Bush did the third time around in the debates. It takes practice, but she's probably a lot smarter than Bush. (Not that that's saying much.)
