Kerry on Letterman
Did any other TFP'ers watch this? What did you think?
Quite honestly, I was embarrassed for the man. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to tear at him... but he just seemed out of place with a seemingly flat sense of humor and delivery. When he started talking politics it wasn't so bad, or else at least he didn't appear to be on the wrong set.
The man just has very little personal likeability or personal gravitas to me. Of course my reaction will be different from a person whose politics differ less, but I think a lot of people would share my impressions on this.
Well, I'd rather have a politician than a comedian in office... no doubt about that. but, I don't think his campaign fairs well in these venues. The man just seems so uptight and out of touch with communicating with regular people.
