John, I’m sure his numbers will go up, but I’m not sure that
reflects last night’s speech as much as his general political
fortunes. I favor him in spite of last night’s speech.
Generally, he came across as affable and charming. But the
content and delivery of his speech was largely rough and stumbling.
He needs a speechwriter and a speech coach who will play to his
folksy strengths (for example, the repeated “all y’all” seems like
he’s trying too hard — “y’all” would do nicely).
Clearly, Sen. Allen’s running for president. But the Senate
campaign is a much needed warmup. Because if that’s how he looks in
two years’ time, I seriously doubt he can beat Hillary.
