The guy lies seamlessly and sincerely and attacks without sounding angry.
It makes me sick to say it but he's good at this.
We underrate him at our peril.

(114,904 posts)I remember "I can see Russia from my house". I remember leaks about how hopeless she was in debate coaching sessions.
NYC Liberal
(20,135 posts)She was announced on August 29 and spoke at the convention on September 3. Her first TV interview (the Charlie Gibson one) wasn't until a week later.
Her speech got some "rave" reviews in the media as well.
Yes, never underestimate them. But don't overestimate them either. He's been at it for almost 3 weeks now and has yet to really help the ticket.

(30,439 posts)just like the media gave Ann Romney rave reviews and they will give Mitt Romney rave reviews.
Hell, Sarah Palin got rave reviews.
I think they are all getting raves but Christie..nature of the beast. And then we will get raves at ours. They are very written speeches. America hopefully will look at records.

(25,415 posts)She at least brought some kind of entertainment. Paul Ryan is just boring. Tweety called it a canned political advertisement. Ha...like a robot. Ryan is just as robotic as Romney.
