And on that note, FRiends might want to check out and weigh in on this American Thinker piece:

Seems some think the 2012 election could turn on such an issue. Then, perhaps not so much.

The problem is that Obama struggles to come off empathetic, due to his inherently professorial speaking style. To make up for this shortcoming, Obama often employs a sort of out-loud whisper to give the impression of intense emotion while still speaking quietly.

I was turning the channel and caught the beginning of Obama's "preach" at Ground Zero" (about the first sentence and one half) and moved on. It struck me (again) how shrill and unfeeling he talks. I ponder how Ronald Reagan would have sounded when he addressed the people mourning their loved ones at the memorial.
