Speeches 101

These convention speeches are fun...but in the end, they're kinda like half-time pep talks at high school football games. They make sense and get you all riled up at the moment, but the second you step back on the field to play, you've forgotten all that shit the coach was screaming only a minute earlier...

Hey, I can't remember a thing Obama said last week, and I don't care. It takes more than prepared texts by speech writers on tele-prompters to mean something. Otherwise, like I said, why not just have Dicky V. walk in and give a speech?

Hey, I'm sure if we looked at tapes of Dole at the 1996 convention we'd be bowled over by their enthusiasm. How it goes.

Doesn't matter.
