I hear it in his voice

Just read the Reagan quote above to the Mrs, saving who it was for the punch line.

No punch; she says, 'It's amazing how, even without knowing who that is, I hear it in his voice.'

'You knew who that was before the end?" I asked.

'Yes. Of course it may have helped that I listened to him (Reagan) for half an hour last night on Levin.' (But not this, I asked. No.)

That quote ... approaching 40 years ago.
