I've been giving speeches all over the County the past 2 weeks. I'm
very comfortable in front of strangers, and by all accounts I've
been doing pretty well.
Last night I gave a speech in Asbury Park in front of a crowd of
people that in large measure, I knew. I've never done that before.
Much to my surprise, I found myself feeling quite pressured and
nervous. I can't explain why. I felt I gave my worst performance to
date.
Jim Keady, who I have complimented in the past as one of the best
public speakers I've ever seen (if I could be him in front of a
jury in my next case I'd probably make enough to retire) came over
and gave some much needed tips on delivery. He's a pro at this and
makes this very diffucult endeavor of public speaking look easy.
I greatly appreciate the advice Jim. I have another this morning and
I think I'll get some confidence back concentrating on what you told
me.
By the way Jim Keady, Ed Johnson and Jimmy Bruno, none of them to my
knowledge are Republicans, braved a room full of R's to be there for
me because I'm an Asbury guy. I love this City. That they were
there added credibility to what I was doing in front of the
Committee people that have to vote next week.
Thanks again gentleman.
