Top that, RNC. Top that convention. Top that speech.
Top that leadership, top that inspiration, top that optimism.

You can't, you don't have it in you as a party.

4. McCain can't top that speech.
He is literally incapable of rising to that level.

6. He can't even DREAM of getting to that level, seriously.
It's going to be like watching the high school sophomore debate squad after seeing this.

8. The fundies are now praying for a Gustave hit so that the Repubs
won't have media spotlight on them.

9. Yea but

They got fear, the flag, ignorant masses, bread, circusus, racism, voting machines. This was a night of nights, but in a month will anyone outside of political junkies like us remember it? Afterall, the new season of American Idol is due to start.

NO, I have no confidence in the general populace. We should win this election 70% to 30%, but it's going to be right down the 50/50 line in my view.

Bless Obama and the speech was utterly breathtaking, but after a week of propaganda, media trashing and pro Repuke pabulum we'll be right back at ground zero I fear.

10. it's gonna be entertaining to watch MSNBC's coverage next week
I had decided, earlier, not to watch the thug convention. But after watching how well Tweety and KO have been doing, especially with our Rachel, i think it's going to be high comedy next week.
:P
