Davin L. — (archived)

"The point was that Davin seems to have no problem with rousing the troops as long as you are not crude about it. I might be moved to tears hearing an actor say the lines I quoted but your average guy on the street prefers something more direct."

I disagree. I think Joe Average is not out for prose, to be sure- but people generally feel talked down to if you think youre going to appeal to their deeper emotions by talking like a pro wrestler.

Its good to see the CnC rally the troops, if the troops are rallied, regardless if I agree with the policies or not. Its the idiocy factor that bugs me, and when it really gets down to it, I think his 'wrastler' talk doesn't do a damn thing for the un-motivated. Just my opinion, though.

Nobody complains about 'over-head' when you listen to Tony Blair speak. Hell- I'd be tempted to vote for Blair, should he run in an election here, even if he was a can of tuna!
