NUANCE
The internationally acclaimed and emmy winning comic Eddie Izzard does a great bit on this in his "Dressed To Kill" performance. In respect to public address he says: "It's seventy percent how you look, twenty percent how you sound, and ten percent what you say." Sad but true. G.W. has Kerry soundly beat in those terms. He looks great, sleeves rolled up, ready for action. He sounds good. He uses terms that incite profound feelings. Who cares what's actually being said? I guess ten percent of us do, and that's not nearly enough.
