Walter Mondale Tells Obama to Ditch the "Idiot Boards"

Mondale is referring to President Obama's abuse of teleprompters.


The Politico reported:

“He uses these idiot boards to read speeches in television, and I think he loses the connection that he needs emotionally with American voters,” Mondale said in an interview set to air this evening on CNN’s The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer, according to a transcript from the network.

“Idiot board” is a term used in television and movie production to refer to boards held up for performers to read off.
