Inaugural Addresses

The media pundits, who built up the myth of Obama from the get-go, will likely trip all over themselves with praise on what a masterpiece of oratory his inaugural speech is. Granted, anybody looks good compared to the Inarticulate One who occupied the White House the previous eight years, but it isn't saying much. I don't believe Obama is a good orator at all, and his speeches tend to be the same old dreck cribbed from other speeches.

It probably won't be the worst inaugural address either.

It would be hard to top William Henry Harrison's speech in 1841, which directly led to his death.
