4. Definitely!
We had it on MSNBC when the TV jerks decided to interrupt it. Message to self: must memorize CSPAN's channel number.

8. Cable news would be smart to do the same..
But obviously they're not that smart.

It amazes me that they have yet to get the clue that showing Obama/Biden speeches uninterrupted equals more ratings.

12. SO TRUE!
I changed the channel pretty fast once they interrupted Biden.

7. And did you notice the crowd?
Sure, they booed at things like "McCain wants to tax healthcare" but they didn't yell out hateful things.

I LOVE our candidates! :patriot:

23. How many were at the Palin rally (St Clairsville. OH) today?
I was listening, not watching. Sounded like about 150 or so, but they were an obnoxious 150....

16. Unity. Focus. Hope.
Seeing Hillary on that stage endorsing Obama show the Democrats to be together and strong. Joe Biden's message was focused on the issues that matter. And finally we have hope for the future.

20. The TV dudes were complaining that Bill Clinton left
without listening to Biden's speech. They said something along the lines of there was no hurry to get to VA. :wtf:

That was about when my inner voice yelled "Go to CSPAN!"


I loved all the speeches. It sort of brought back the same excitement from the convention. We do have hope for the future. :patriot:

21. And Bill! (If you tuned in late you may have missed him - he spoke first, briefly,
then had to leave.)
