Constructive Kerry Criticism

[SHRED]

I intend to vote Kerry however I wish I could reach his handlers and tell them to please have him give speeches in his speaking voice.

Anyone else notice how he monotones his words with raised voice and drawn out phrasing. This sounds so wooden and a bit condescending to me and others I know who watch him.

I have heard him in interviews and he has a wonderful natural speaking voice and would be more attractive to the swing vote if he would use it.
Why can't he use it for speeches also?

Granted this is a bit superficial but that is what this country is based in.

1. Wow...I'm impressed. That was constructive criticism.

I was expecting another "I'll vote for Kerry, but he pisses me off" thing.

Thanks for the suggestion.

4. on the other hand...

there's something to be said for his being himself, which is an Ivy League-trained speaker and champion debater. If he tries to put on a Queens accent, for example, it would be a big flop.

5. I think you're right.....

He does give off that wooden feel. But ever since he named Edwards, it almost works. They contrast each other perfectly.

6. Yep

Edwards will hopefully bring Kerry into a more relaxed way of speech giving too.
