    and some are really a HOOT without that teleprompter. No need to mention names.

          Sure....

          McCain does much better with a mike in his hand walking through the audience....In fact, he's most uncomfortable in a "staged" type sitting....But this is where Osama is MOST comfortable, staged, prompted, and canned....He's an excellent speaker, but I don't want an excellent speaker to be my president....I want someone with the experience, the know-how, and the character to be Commander-In-Chief and Osama just doesn't fit that bill....

          Osama would lose it as we've all seen it before....You take away his speech and teleprompter, he's just another empty shell with no substance ....

          McCain/Palin '08

            With Bush you got your wish, Brad....a non-speaker, whether in front of teleprompters, large settings, small settings, and I'm sure even in front of a mirror in his own bedroom...

            Anyone see Obama's opponent last night? He didn't look at his audience at all...his eyes didn't move from those teleprompters...they were glued to them...I'm sure he's thanking God his teleprompter worked...LOL...

            So...come the debates...what's Obama's opponent going to do? No teleprompter...he won't be walking around with a mic...he'll be there...alone...saying "my friends" a lot...and seeing how much of his POW experience he can get in to each answer, whether it's the war in Iraq, healthcare, or buying groceries to feed a family of four...

            I have to give him credit, tho...getting Palin on the ticket was a very good move...I even think she's beginning to overshadow him!

            So we'll see...too bad he won't be able to have Palin at his side at the debates...I'm sure she could help him with some of the answers...LOL...

              us - McCain will do better because he won't use a teleprompter.

              Obama will have problems unless the ear mike is really fast.

                Ear mike?
                That your 'loop-hole' to when he wins the debate?
                Sort of like Wolfie saying the 2 best sellers were too well written, so he couldn't have written them.

                Klarissa, does Obama's forehead seem kind of low to you?
                Does he seem to have too many teeth in his grin?
                Are you, down deep, convinced he got through harvard with some sort of minority charity pass?

                Obama can't really talk; can't really think; he isn't a 'real' leader; that isn't real experience, not 'real' patriotism.

                Did it ever occurr to you, that maybe your view of Obama, - isn't real ?

              As I said elsewhere, no one believes you truly care about anyone's public speaking skills, FSU. George Bush is still in the White House, remember? We KNOW what cons did last summer and we haven't forgotten that you had nothing but lies and excuses in defense of the fake cowboy so give it a rest. Your garbage about tele-prompters and speaking off the cuff or whatever? NO ONE BELIEVES YOU. LMAO. This is an amateurishly obvious con red herring which you people need to stop trying to peddle. You've lied too many times to be trusted with running our country again. Sorry. Someone has to say it. ;-(

                You're absolutely right, FSU.

                Without his teleprompter, Osama completely loses it. That's because he either 1) has no core values or 2) doesn't want to tell us his core values.
                I don't care if you're a Republican or a Democrat, that's not a good thing. If he were a Republican, the Dems would be having a field day talking about the "community organizer President" who can't talk without a writer!

                McCain & Palin have taken away Obama's prime weapon that McCain is another Bush term.

                No sane human would look at the McCain/Palin ticket and equate it to Bush/Cheney. It's not rationally possible.

                  Cheney is a rabidly vicious anti-intelectual, who likes to kill things.
                  Palin is a rabidly vicious anti-intelectual, who likes to kill things.

                  Bush is a flag-draped chicken-hawk devoid of a single success in his life not handed him by others.
                  McCain is -
                  a flag-draped hero, with many successes he earned himself.

                  Darn. If McCain was not running to validate Bush's war, and Bush's economy, and Bush's view of how handy a flag is to cover things you would actualy have been right, spinward.

                  Who'da thunk it?

                  "...but I don't want an excellent speaker to be my president."-FU Grad

                  So, what you are saying is you want more of the same? Bush is your perfect president....much like you, the ass couldn't string two words together if his life depended on it.

                  What did you think of Bush's public speaking, slate? We're all ears. Please explain why you were impressed enough to vote for him twice. Thanks. ;-)

                    meso - Bush is not a great public speaker - I didn't realize he was running in this election.
