Without his teleprompter, President Obama's speed dwindles to the proverbial turtle and the "ahhhhhs" are inserted about every tenth word--his pauses are used to gather lost words that will step on the least amount of toes. When he uses a teleprompter the pauses are inserted for their calculated effect on his audience. Also, the charismatic FDR-ish body language is completely absent. Absent too is the Obama who makes women faint and men scream.
