Nothing like going blank in a public speech to improve your image.

Twelve "uh's" in the first minute alone.  I thought this guy was supposed to be a great public speaker.  Or is that only when he has the teleprompter?

He's quickly gotten the rep of doing well with a teleprompter and pre-written speeches plagarized from Malcolm X and others.
Without those, and when hit with hard questions, the empty suit starts to collapse.

They'll blame Ron Paul supporters adding the uuhs to the teleprompter from their cheeto ridden computer command centers.

Hmm.  Tampering with teleprompters reminds me of the line, "Go @&%$ yourself, San Diego."  It's not too late  for Rev. Wright to claim that "God Damn America" was slipped into the teleprompter as sabotage. 

Oh, wait, yes it is.   laugh

He was listening to an aide give him helpful policy hints.  The ear piece was defective and he could not hear himself as he was speaking.  Hence the comment "I can't hear".

Empty suit.
