polarized / conversational competence / the single most overlooked skill /
to hone their interpersonal communications skills / to sustain coherent, confident conversation
allow pundits on my show / food stamps / Dick Cheney / sensing this acceptance
open up the inner recesses of his or her mind / take a cue from journalists / Err on the side of caution.
keep rephrasing it over and over / hey care about what you're like, what you have in common
paraphrasing/ I can bolster my own identity./ boils down to the same basic concept
