I’ve often criticized John McCain for his poor speaking performances during the election campaign. I assumed I would be doing more of the same today.
I was wrong.
Last night, John McCain gave his best speech. McCain seemed more relaxed and more in tune with his speech last night. He seemed more comfortable with the words and rarely struggled with the teleprompter. Although he did lose his rhythm a few times, the timing of his words was far better than it has been in the past.
The circumstances were difficult, but McCain did quite well in spite of them.
Mechanics aside, I was also impressed with McCain’s message. He was humble, gracious and authentic. I would like to see more of that John McCain in future speeches.
