Joe Biden REALLY put a human face on the campaign. I mean, he might as well have been sitting at our kitchen table with a cup of coffee. Real family feel. Spectacular.

Seeing Michelle tearing up when Beau related Joe's giving up his opportunity in DC for his kids was touching and priceless.

In terms of laying down the law, and in a seriously sensible and effecting way, Bill Clinton was...formidable. The Clinton's had me sick and furious during the primaries, but YOW! They really have smoked the convention. Thus far, they lead the pack in being persuasive. I liked Deval Patrick, Michelle was fine, Kerry was decent, Teddy was touching in that it mattered enough for him to ignore his doctors to attend, but I gotta say in fairness, after Barack, the Clintons are the MVPs this week. I'm really heartened that they got with the program.

Hey Greg, Michelle made me cry, too. Can you imagine Cindy McCain trying to get a tear through all those tucks?! What a sincere First Lady Michelle Obama will be. Sigh :0)

Dennis Kucinich gets an Honorable Mention here, too. He was FIRED UP last evening. He should have been on in prime time. I absolutely love his spirit.

And YES, the Clintons redeemed themselves during this convention, the old school Clintons showed up - not the possessed Clintons of the Primaries.
I guess they listened to their hearts after all.

I am SO sad I missed Dennis Kuccinich.
He seriously rocks out loud. Unfortunately,
I was still at work them. Of course they gave him a crappy time slot. It really gripes me how he gets marginalized.

And yes, the way McBush wound up with Cindy isn't all that charming either. If we were as classless as the neocons, we'd be all over that, media-wise.

Despite the phenomal and historic night that everyone experienced yesterday, the "GOP/polling Companies" are coming very soon to attack Obama Campaign. Do not be surprised when you see 64% not satisfied, 70% that, 55% this; McCain has taken the lead in national poll, and everything. That, just to quickly cool down yesterday tremendous success.
No one has to worry about those GOP polls. They are exclusively part of the GOP machine.
Any time Obama makes points for something big, they have to come so quick with well controlled polls in order to cool down the success, to confuse people, and to create some panic in Obama's camp.
They did it just after a "very successful foreign trip".
They have been doing it after any major event involving Obama's campaign, including the pick of Joe Biden.
They will do it just after the Democratic Convention to mislead voters that it was a failure.
They keep coming with no sense polls in order to keep Obama down.
How could they be serious when their numbers arbitrary show McCain is better than Obama in Iraq while 80% of American want this war to end?
Americans give Democrats the control of the Congress because they want them to end the Iraq war. 80% of American prefers the person who will end that war. Where those polls companies get those irrelevant numbers?
Any one has to bear it in mind that those polls will never be favorable to Obama, so we have just to forget and reject them. Obama was far behind in Iowa, but he won.
Those polls put Obama in a bad position before NC and Indiana primaries, but the results were favorable to him.
Their man Rudy Giuliani was widely leading the GOP polls in the primary, but he lost in ridiculous way when real voters came up.
In November, McCain will experience the Giuliani adventure. Real voters will give Obama a very landslide victory.
I would even suggest to those GOP/Poll companies to put McCain ahead of 10 points until November, as they were doing for their man Giuliani and leave us alone.
Meanwhile, the campaign would do its things, including reminding people no to pay attention to those misleading polls.
In this election, the campaign has to frequently remind people that we are not fighting only against McCain, but we are also fighting against the GOP/poll companies and the media

By Barack Obama Baby Aug 28th 2008 at 7:45 am EDT (Updated Aug 28th 2008 at 7:45 am EDT)

I agree. We are coming off really soft. I'm so tired of them always giving McCain compliments. McCain isn't going to make nice and goo goo eyes at Obama next week. They are going to shred him apart. We finally have a large viewing audience through the local media, for those without cable, to finally see who Obama is and what McCain "really" stands for. But it went over flat. It was good, but as a Dem, I was a little disappointed. I would've liked to have seen a video on kids who are struggling with education because of the NO Child Left Behind Act, a video of children in AMERICA who are hungry and starving. Where are the CHILDREN!

They should've played a portion of Spike Lee's Documentary, When the Levee's Broke, show the people suffering from Katrina and show McCain and Bush celebrating McCain's birthday, smiling and giggling, while people were dying in New Orleans.

Show it, Say It and Show it Again. Pictures Speak a tthousand words.

Al Gore speaks tonight, but I don't think he will hit McCain hard either.

The best part was seeing Biden and how he is a normal guy like most Americans. And I really liked Hillary's speech, it was moving. I actually cried and I didn't really care for her much during the primaries. But she was relatable at the DNC. I liked Bill's speech and was happy when they cheered for him for so long. John Kerry was the best in hammering McCain, then Biden. I really liked Kerry's speech. But the people without cable didn't see Kerry's speech so it was essentially a wash.

Barack Obama needs to be relatable. He needs to talk to the American people like they've got GED's, not PHD's. He needs to be relatable today. I would tell him, don't use any words with more than 6 characters. That's the biggest complaint I hear from independents or rural area people, is that he speaks like he's uppity and uses big words. Well, for me I like an articulate human being, but I understand some people are put off by it. So he needs to show his down to earth side. He needs to show that he's smart, ready, and that he's an ordinary man with a diverse background....essentially that he's one of them.

Just needed to get that off my chest.

Go Obama/Biden!

DID CNN tell their viewers this information because i didn't know that small information until today researching PUMA.

People, This woman came to the Dem Convention to get the PUMA message across and CNN gave this Scam group it's 15 minutes during the convention. PUMA is now using Ann in their blogs and Youtube attack ad to recruit members. ANN PRICE MILLS is not some innocent lone Hilary supporter in the audience.This woman was a planning on CNN,MSNBC or FOX News to find her.

Yes!!! Obama supporters should BLACKOUT main media(CNN,MSNBC and Fox news) but supporters should ALWAY keep an eye on their ENEMY while reaching for the prize.

No doubt! Ya, bigtime!

OK, so there's a convention center FULL of people, and ONLY this ONE "all choked up" Hillary "loyalist" gets interviewed. And further, when some nobody gets interviewed by MSM, they usually get like 5 or 10 seconds. CNN gave her a close up for about two minutes, letting her repeat her whole schtick TWICE! No average "person in the crowd" gets that. It definately sat real weird in my head as I watched it.

But CNN rots anyway. Watch C-SPAN. CNN BS'd over most of the speakers with pointless ad-libs and dissentary (oops, I mean commentary). I am so sick of Blitzers pathetic puss, smarmy Cooper, and vacuous news model Brown. All chattering worthless pablum, while convention speakers are inaudible in the background. It's like, if you're not one of the 5 superstars of the convention, you get NO coverage at all. Infuriating. C-SPAN gives you the WHOLE UNINTERRUPTED CONVENTION.

Can't wait for Barack's address. I'm betting he's gonna pull out some new and powerful stuff we haven't heard before, and he's gonna deliver it with a plaintive fury!

To better days!

He still wants to go into Afghanistan and get Bin Laden.

Barack will put an end to the genocide in Darfur.

Barack will give the country a health care system that works and he won't face the same gridlock that HRC did in the 90's because he is open to working with Republicans. He is also opposed to a mandate (like the one in Clinton and Edwards' plans) which would require many Americans to pay rates that many could not afford.

He has battled legislatively against the death penalty.

Barack is consistently looking out for our troops:

Cut to the story of storage of supplies that FEMA had stored and gave away. Not to the people of N.O. but somewhere else. Talk about the levies and the possiblity of them failing if another Hurricane happened.

Show a picture of Bush and McCain on the tarmac laughing. Then cut back to the citizens in the flooding water trying to get to high ground.

3. Send McCain back to Arizona where he can meet with his lawyer to discover how many houses he and his mistress ... er ... I mean, wife own.

5. Have the IRS audit the McCain's books.

Today in Billings, Montana Senator Barack Obama surprised me one mo' again with his genius. The topic was Veterans Rights and BO had statistics on Veterans benefits and facts that pertained only to Montana. It was awesome. There was an elderly Crow chief in the audience who asked BO about what he will do for the First Americans when he gets in office. BO was so kind to the chief and then he told him that he had been adopted into the Crow Nation and his name is Barack Black Eagle.
