Jennifer Millerwise on CNN (Bush Spokeswoman).
She has that annoying 'baby' voice that women often use. What does it say about Bush that his spokeswoman talks like a helpless little girl?

I just hate it when women speak that way. It is completely unnatural and used primarily to elicit quick sympathy (mostly from men, of course).

2. She might not be able to help it. Some people just have weird voices.

3. I think it's that little girl voice..
that any woman can use. Some women speak that way all the time, but I don't think it's natural.

Either way, it tells me that the Bush camoaign is using her to appeal to men in a base way.

4. She turned me off
She seemed too robotic and a bit dense.

Looked like she was reading off a teleprompter. Not speaking, but reading.

And it was the same old talking points.

A better example was on before. John Kerry's brother, Cam, struck me as very intelligent and confident. I loved when he was shown video of Bush anti-Kerry jab, and he said his brother extended the olive branch, and it seemed they got their answer.

I think that resonated more than some airhead reading a talking points script.

5. She grates on me. They are hitting that $87B supplemental bill hard,
saying "Kerry and Edwards voted against body armor for the troops" plus negative points about Kerry.

They (Bush*) need to go positive according to Wm Kristol. He said on TV that Bush* should talk about his achievements and not attack or argue with Kerry on costs of programs, etc. Har ittee har har har.

6. HOW can you watch CNN? Do you like being slapped in the face as a Dem?
Oy.

Some habits are hard to break I guess.

9. Ted Turner not happy with the CNN bend to the right
He's on the record saying it. Katie Couric slapped Kerry this Am with the rep crapolla statement," but you didn't speak on your plans."We all know he did.
