“He wouldn’t be where he is if he didn’t know how to deliver convention speeches.”

No. He wouldn’t be where he is if idiotic voters did not confuse the simple ability to READ empty platitudes in measured tones, with any kind of statesmanship, decisiveness, moral conviction, or ability to command our armed forces.

Take away "Teleprompterman's" toy and he's lost.

“He wouldn’t be where he is if he didn’t know how to deliver convention speeches.”

This statement is highly accurate. Because knowing how to deliver speeches is all Obama has.

I think Jenny Backus has given Leno, Letterman & Co. ammunition for some great Obama comedy bits.

From your link:
The speech will be given on the 45th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech...
