The tone was somber and as you say, resolute. She wasn’t speaking to fire up a crowd, or make herself heard over loud cheering. Don’t know if a voice coach has been consulted, but from what I’ve seen on the TLC show; in more quiet settings, that’s a pretty normal speech pattern.
My only complaint on the video, is minor, and of a technical nature. We know Todd is her behind the scenes engineer and cameraman, but he needs to place the lights so they don’t reflect off her glasses. I found it distracting.
It has been a while since I head Gov. Palin speak; is it just my imagination, or has her accent shifted ever so slightly? Although it never bothered me, some people have complained in the past that they couldn't stand her voice and accent... and it doesn't seem (at least to me) to be as pronounced as it used to be.
As usual, the content of the message was excellent, and was a great and welcome contrast to the shrill cries of the MSM.
Excellent point....tho I've not seen the actual video yet.
One can buy "anti-glare" glasses tho...then no matter what, she wouldn't have to worry about the lights.
In point of fact...I like her glasses....they give her a very studied appearence.
Could be and another good point. But more authoritative and easier to listen to. I hope it is the launch of ‘Serious Sarah’ as she ramps up for her campaign.
