[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't like Carly and would never in a million years vote for her but the contrast between her and Hillary is striking.

Carly can give a good speech and deliver it without screeching like Hillary does when she tries to emphasize a point. Hillary's speaking style is grating and those who say that a woman giving a speech inevitably comes across shrill is just not true because there was nothing the least bit shrill about Carly. She actually gave a great speech, well delivered. I did not care for her singing at the start of the speech but that was made up for by the rest of the speech.[/quote]

Yet no one votes for her.[/quote]

I don't find Hillary shrill or grating. I do find Bernie grating and loud. I also find Trump's speaking style unbearably obnoxious. Tone plays very differently depending on the listener. In any event, I don't base my support for politicians on how well they deliver a speech.

A prominent Congressman came to visit my agency a few weeks ago. Gave a great speech, very charming, but I didn't believe a word he said, largely because I already know his politics, which are 180 degrees from mine. He may be a good speaker but he'd never get my vote.[/quote]

I don't support politicians on how well they deliver a speech either which is why I'd never vote for Carly although I think she is a good speaker.

But how one speaks from a stylistic standpoint impacts how effectively one communicates. I react to Hillary now the way I did to Palin and GWB - I mute the sound. Palin lacked the ability to speak coherently which one certainly cannot say about Clinton.

The odd thing about Hillary is that she is quite effective when she just converses in a normal tone. For a person who has been in the public arena so long, I am surprised that she has not honed her public speaking skills.[/quote]
