Kilgore another Jefferson?
Over at The Virginia Centrist, home to two young, twenty-something bloggers:
"Virginians who don't follow state politics more than one month every four years are probably pretty confused after the events of the last few years:
1...
2...
3. Jerry Kilgore announces his candidacy in an extremely high pitched voice."
Hmmm. Look at this from an interview with Jefferson scholar Joseph Ellis, author of "American Sphinx;"
Beyond Books: "He [Thomas Jefferson] was a poor speaker, publicly?"
Joseph Ellis: "He had a very reedy, high-pitched voice, according to commentators, that did not project well...He was simply not comfortable expressing himself with passion and emotion in front of others. Very reserved, very insecure as a speaker."
The history they don't teach these young folks these days. ;-)
