I watched Obama make his acceptance speech last week. I wanted to see what the fuss was about. I was underwhelmed. He may as well have been the Olympic closing ceremonies. What I heard from Bill Clinton the night before was much, much better, I thought.
I guess I'm a minority of one, but Obama didn't move me. His speaking style doesn't thrill me. It could've been any politician listing a bunch of unlikely promises during any campaign of my adult life.
Yawn.
Last night I caught Fred Thompson's speech at the RNC convention.
Jolie Pitt!
That, kids, is the difference between an amateur and a professional.
