Does anyone else think this may have been edited? I was watching the audience, and the video of them seemed choppy at times.

PM me your email and I'll send you a higher quality version.  There is a splice in the middle but that's it and it's obvious.

At this point in the campaign....not being able to articulate your views, vision and platform, seem hard to understand, given his formal education and choice of profession. 

This is not to say public speaking is a absolute requisite for leadership, but come on, this is day what? of spouting the same basic rhetoric.

Looks to me like a vote for O will just be "more of same" for the next four years if his telepromter shows up missing grin

Oh ... my ... Gawd.

What this clearly shows is that he doesn't THINK or KNOW anything ... he just reads what other people write for him, and it doesn't even percolate deep enough to let him ad lib acceptably if the teleprompter goes down.

Those clips are pretty old, actually.  Not that he doesn't look pretty stupid, anyway.  I doubt he'd do much better today.

Geeziz. No matter how gorgeous she is, I'd go insane listening to that girl for just five minutes!

By any chance could she be Obama's debate coach?
