Who's Running the Teleprompter for Obama? (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x7180005#7180146)

I just noticed three pauses in his speech. I've never noticed this before. Anyone else notice it?

He just paused at an odd time for applause. Oh shit.

16. This is NOT good!

The pauses, the repetitions, the whole thing.

It's probably great for the folks in the audience. But, for teevee viewers, ...

21. THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE TELEPROMPTER

He's pausing for applause. Jesus, people, calm the fuck down.

:D

Now they're starting threads asking other DUmmies to stop posting about the teleprompter:

Hahaha.... that's great!

Even the libs are finally showing how concerned they are at Obama's lack of speaking skills. From what I understand, during Sarah Palin's convention speech the teleprompter was all missed up because they were modifying the speech while she was giving it and she didn't miss a beat. Now any preceived gaff in his speaking is cause for concern amongst DUers.

I'm surprised they're admitting he uses a teleprompter. If memory serves, they vehently denied that he needed one. It must have been those photos of him with a teleprompter in the middle of a rodeo ring that finally convinced them.

Ahhhh...I see my long distance Force-Choke worked.

Sorry DUmmies, your great O is nothing but an empty suit.

That's great!
It would be funny if in real life, some conservative citizen somehow hijacked the signal to his teleprompter and put that on it!

It's fantastic!

And so damned true!

If I weren't against Barry on principle, I'd be against having to listen to "Uh, uh, uh" for the next 4 years.
