Listening to Obama.

[Wilber_Stool]

He sounds shaken. I know what I saw. He was stuttering, seemed unsure of himself. Like he knew something that he couldn't reveal.
I like him too but but I'm not blind. There's something going on here that we're not being told about and he seems scared.

Clues? Hints?

Anything? :shrug:

1. how so?

[LeftyFingerPop]

2. Not at all!!

He's making beautiful sense.

[TwilightGardener]

3. Uh...no.

[babylonsister]

4. I think he sounds careful; he's not willing to stick his foot in his mouth

before he has all the facts at his disposal. I'm applauding his caution.

[AldebTX]

5. Why?

Any thoughts?

[bigtree]

6. compared to who? Bush looked and sounded, positively hung-over

McCain is a reflexive liar . . .

Listen to what he's saying.

[Cant trust em]

7. I'd say that he sounds presidential.

Forceful, determined.

[firedupdem]

8. I don't think so at all? He's taking questions...what the hell is

McCain doing?

[faithfulcitizen]

9. imagine that- taking questions. that's so 90's.

[silex]

10. No

He's thinking and watching what he's saying while pointing out that main street has been hurting too and the same attention should be given to other people.He pauses a lot when he's speaks as he always does nothing new. I know what I saw too. I still think that he's trying to be careful about what he's saying.Doesn't want it to be seem as partisan.

17. Yes I heard what he said.

But it sounded empty. Like he didn't believe it.

[Neecy]

11. shaken?

Are we watching the same thing? He looks completely calm.

[Pirate Smile]

12. I completely disagree.

[jkshaw]

13. Where are you watching him?

[Wilber_Stool]

18. I wasn't watching him.

I was listening to him. There is a big difference between watching and listening. So much that I left the kitchen to see what was going on when I noticed the tone of his voice.

[gblady]

14. that is not how I saw it...

He looked concerned, which is a totally rational reaction to this crisis...
He was thinking carefully before he spoke...he knows every word he utters is under a microscope
He was calm, clear minded, knowledgable.

15. 1000+ posts troll

16. Brilliant response.

Maybe it was because I wasn't watching that I heard the tone of his voice. He may have smoothed out as the questions continued but when he started, I could hear something was wrong.
