{news} Scott Deshefy's stump speech audiofile

[Richard Duffee]

That's the first classical political speech I've heard from any of us. I've
heard lots of conviction from us before on lots of subjects, but I've never
before heard conviction that we're going to win. It's a speech from before
the days of television, when rhetoric was an art form, when details were
chosen for their vividness and salience to the theme, when all the
essentials had to be stated, when everything had to be arranged in one
melodic flow toward one point: that one will win because one must win for
goodness and truth to prevail. It is foursquare in the middle of what the US
has always meant by idealism. I haven't heard it from anyone for a long
time. It's like reading the classified section and coming upon a sonnet.
