He is an awful speaker. I think his speech writer must be pretty lame too. I was trying to pay attention but my thoughts kept drifting off. He could have said anything. I don't think he did a very good job of handling the heckler and as the righties kept shouting down the heckler, it looked like McLame didn't know what to do. The hall was out of his control.

he's been practicing this speech for weeks

I didn't miss much-- So what you are saying-- Don't stay up for the reruns... Two of my boys had football and one had soccer... so I had to make a choice-- take my boys to football or watch the speech... That was difficult... smile...

no policy except that of Bush.

He told more about the POW experience.

That was all I hadn't heard before. When he makes that little grin before the applause, he looks really bad.

Bad speech, bad delivery. Grade C-
