He barks the words, and often gets the angry emphasis on the wrong words :)

His faux anger is almost funny to watch..although I hope we don't have to endure 4 years of it..

It's so obvious too, because in off-the-cuff speech, his cadence is natural and properly inflected..

Here's hoping he keeps that coach :)

1. Months ago on, cspan covered him stumping. He opened his appearance with two "lawyer" jokes that
he delivered so flatly, with no feel as if he had to get them out of the way. It was painful to watch.

2. I've noticed lately that his speeches sound rehearsed and stilted.
It sounds as if he is talking to a recalcitrant child at times. He is very patronizing. I guess that's how republicans like to be talked to by their leaders.

3. The content of his speeches are no better.
If he sounds like your dog, then he sounds like your dog reading bumper stickers.

5. LOL!
Seriously though, listen to what he says when he reads those Reader's Digest-sized speeches on TV.

They sound like a bunch of bumper stickers stringed together.

"My friends..."

"Love my country..."

Find a transcript of one of his speeches and I bet that you find a bumper sticker for everything he says.
