Yes, when done right by anyone, sophistry can be very good and impressive;
but when all is said and do, I would not bet the farm based on good oratory
and debating points. J

all done.

 

But it was not Hilary doing the talking but a surrogate; you must really
like ventriloquists who put words - true or false, good or bad, wise or
unwise - into dummies mouths.  Anyone with enough money can hire a good
attorney, PR firm, and orator to give fabulous speeches for them, which
might be significant if the attorney, PR firm, and orator were the ones
running for office.

Did anybody catch Bill stumping for Hilary yesterday on C-SPAN? Helluva
speech --organized, substantive, knowledgeable. Nobody in US politics today
can deliver up that level of offhand yet sincere oratory like Bill Clinton.
I had to keep reminding myself of all the awful things he did while in
office, it was that good... I actually liked, admired, and was less
terrified of Hilary when he was all done. Wow. (Sorry, but -- in my defense
-- there is something reassuring about brains, smarts, and an actual
program, ya know?)
