I think it is a Handicap for Romney that he sounds Insane

Having seen video of lots of his stump performances the last few days, my take-away was that the speech would have some some effective lines mixed in, but delivered in a most unsettling manner.

He sounds insane.

He has the shrill edge-of-sanity delivery of a guy in a 1950s science fiction movie warning people about the saucers.

Bush often sounded speech disabled or drugged - I always wondered why no media person ever pointed it out...

several occasions. I am not saying he is insane, just unbalanced. He cannot deal with failure or anyone telling him no. He is like a 2 year old temperament in an adult body. He has no sense of what it means to be compassionate or honest. He is missing vital emotions.

But I chalked that up to the likelihood he had been told it was over, he could not win. Both he and Ryan sounded very resigned to inevitability.

I roll out of bed actually.
The funny thing is if the saucers ever really did come, no one would ever believe that guy.
