You guys need to listen to Dick Morris once in a while. Hillary Clinton is no Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton has the charisma, the ability to connect with the audience, and enough oratorial skills to get away with almost anything. Not to mention that his Monday night speech was electrifying, and praised by friends and foes alike. The only other person who has spoken in the convention, that has come close to Clinton would be Obama. Even Bill's enemies cannot criticize his communication abilities. On the other hand, fact is that Hillary Clinton is by no means a natural speaker. She, by no means, can communicate as effectively as Bill Clinton. She cloaks her true persona by surrounding herself with a slew of entourage to make it look like she is something. She is respected by a lot, true. But for what reason? Healthcare was her big issue she was supposed to tackle when she was the first lady and Bill was the president. We all do know what happened to Bill's Healthcare revamping proposal. It got shot down like a clay pigeon. I used to be a big fan of Hillary Clinton for quite some time, until I started listening to some of her speeches,and to me they were not even subpar performances. The aura she carries, the praise she receives and the audience she can draw, come only because she is Bill Clinton's wife. Just like Ron Reagan was allowed to speak because he was Ronnie's dear son. Except that Ron Reagan inherited something from his daddy. I have read Hillary Clinton's Living History, and I was quite impressed by her. Not anymore. O'Reilly has tried his best to make her come to his show, and to this day she has declined, as she knows O'Reilly will rip her to shreds for the quack that she is. As for Teresa Heinz Kerry, well, let's just say she does not even come close to Hillary Clinton. So that should tell you something, given that I don't think that highly of Hillary, in the first place. Of course, as we all know, America is a conservative place. Southerners don't like strong women. They go more for the conventional types. The advantage that Bill had was that he was from Little Rock, Arkansas, whereas Hillary was raised in Chicago, if I am correct. It's usually a Southerner who can win as a democrat, because he has the best chance of carrying one or more of the bible belt territories.
