Why I dislike clintons speaking style

So I finally realized what it is about Senator Clinton's speaking style that I find so annoying. When she has her "compassionate" voice on, she tends to decrease in volume and increase in pitch towards the end of each sentance or phrase. I dont mean this as an insult to Mrs. Clinton, it is likely just her natrual speaking style and quite unconcious, but this produces (in my mind anyway) the effect that one is being talked
down to rather than at...similar to the way an elementary school
teacher talks to kids.

Just realized it any thought id share it, im glad to be able to put a finger on what it was that bugged me.
