Re: GOP Debate #1: Romney’s authenticity gap

Hampton4camp — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 13:47:42 -0000

Hi guys hope what I have to offer could get to Mr. Gingrich ASAP IF you deem the following helpful.

1. Voice projection needs to be AUTHORITATIVE WITH A SLOWER, LOWER pitch.

2. Platform catchphrases needed.

3. As former President Reagan demonstrated so well, PASSION so overwhelming with conviction

That citizens of our country forgot about the other candidates. As Mr Howard blogged earlier--

Now is the time for a loving spoonful of POSITIVE RHETORIC administered every four hours!

I would love to read this post, but the text is so small and close together... it is almost impossible to read.
Thought I would let you know.

I'm a regular reader of Podium Pundits but I give up on this one.

Good Point Clark! I agree.
Newt is also a great candidate because he is secure enough to compliment his opponents in the race.
He is not just "smart" but he brings to the presidency Wisdom. The kind of Wisdom that helps guard us from making the foolish and distructive mistakes of leaders and nations in the past.

Guess they realise that we expect out politicians to be good talkers and fast on their feet.
Some great talkers out there in the political world both in the US and in the UK.

Re: Tonight’s Presidential Address (from my column today on Hugh Hewitt.com)

Hi Clark
Well written speech, a pleasure to read.

"So tonight’s talk is an opportunity to start setting the current president’s rhetorical house in order."

I'm in the UK but we have just the same problems over here.
Don't get me wrong, I love rhetoric but it should be the icing on the cake not the cake itself.

Clear message made memorable by a little rhetoric - that's what I like.

I shall watch the Presidential Address with renewed interest.

I don't know this for a fact, but I think it's rare for Shakespeare's Macbeth to be mentioned twice in the same day in the Wall Street Journal.

Upon returning to the White House, Obama summoned Vice President Joseph Biden and top foreign policy aides to the Oval Office. They pored over English translations of Mubarak's address, trying to parse the language to determine exactly what he'd said. ...

Love the phrase...

" Haitians should see a blanket of opportunity unfolding before them."

Enjoyed your short but well written post.

Hi Clark
I'm from the UK so I struggled a bit with the abbreviations, but still a good read.

"Ryan is a better man than his speech,"
That's a great phrase - must try and use it sometime.

Enjoyed the post.

Love the quote
“Foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds,”
Sounds like a quote that will allow a change of mind for any politician.

Gracious indeed.
A touch of the "We Have Come to Praise Caesar, Not To Bury Him".
Doesn't appear to be the way in modern politics but of course it takes greater strength to praise your oponent than to criticise.

If you're holding a summit, you must have summit to say.

When you appear at summit after summit, people begin to think you're always looking down on them.

I guess Palin does not understand satire and she complains about telaprompters, what a hypocrite. Palin’s hand job just shows all of us what kind of dullard we are up against, I have not seen this since junior high. She is so perfect for "Fake News", so much for being a private citizen. WOW and some call her a leader.......please.

Re: Ailes v Huffington: No Match

David Murray — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 13:09:27 -0000

Hey, Clark—

Appreciate your perspective, but blogging mores—and Vital Speeches' 75-year-old tradition of printing the unfiltered text—I suggest you ought to include a link to that which you skewer, so that your readers may judge for themselves. After reading this full analysis of the Huffington-Ailes encounter, with full clips of the encounter itself, your readers will no doubt criticize you only for not smothering Walters and Huffington thoroughly enough!
