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.
