In fact, that's been my number one impression throughout, that this is very good but simply not Bill Clinton caliber during his prime. Clinton had such commanding use of pauses, and connecting one point to another via big picture logic. More varied vocabulary also. Memorable phrases. Sparing gestures which meant each one meant more when he did use it. Varied tone and facial expressions depending on the point he was making.

Obama is so much better than Bill. redstatebluegirl Oct 2020 #1
