Every four years the press breathlessly ponders whether a party's nominee, particularly a candidate not known as a spell binding speaker, will deliver a good speech. Amazingly each nominee succeeds.
The best speech writers are given ample time to craft a speech that the candidate is able to rehearse. Yet we are amazed that individuals seeking the presidency, are able to read a teleprompter for 30 minutes.
Notwithstanding the usual borrowed eloquence, Romney's portrayal of himself is important. Although the press will proclaim that he hit it out of the park, if he allows the President to continue to define him, Romney will be watching the rest of the game from the sidelines.
