I fear that you are right. Since speech is purely functional, he is relieved of the need to "vet" what he says, except insofar as he wants to be effective. Since he is well practiced, and supremely confident, he needn't hesitate much, except for dramatic effect. By the way, Rolling Stone had an interview with Clinton in Little Rock during the '92 primary. Grieder, O'Rourke, and Hunter Thompson participated. Grieder was ecstatic over the possibility of Camelot Redux, P.J. uncharacteristically bent over backwards to be fair, but Hunter came right out and said that the guy was hincty. It was weird. Thompson could just feel the bulls**t being poured over him, and kept catching Clinton scrutinizing him in a paranoid manner, like he was totally worried about Hunter's unpredictability. Plus, he felt as if the entourage resembled that of a Mafioso. If only America had listened to Hunter Thompson on that occasion, we could have saved ourselves a lot of trouble.
