FYI, Karen Hughs is President Bush's former Communications Director - irreverantly known as a "spin doctor".

I don't think there will EVER be a speaker for such a diverse group who would hold everyone's interest. I've been to more of these types of situations than I care to remember, and I think there were maybe two or three who really enthralled me - but lost a lot of other people! So, it's "how nice, let's be polite, maybe we'll get something out of it (or not), and clap when it's over." Their job is "KISS"!
