John Kerry gave the speech of his life last night. If you haven't seen it, you should watch it. Word is Kerry wrote the speech. A rarity these days in politics.

Senator John Kerry took to the stage last night with a fiery speech accusing President Bush and John McCain of misleading the country. Kerry’s hard-hitting speech left no doubt that he would come out strong for Barack Obama and Joe Biden in this election. Kerry laid out what is at stake in this election: Our mission is to restore America's influence and position in the world....

Although Bill Clinton and Joe Biden gave the marquee speeches last night, John Kerry spoke as well. And I agree with Josh Marshall — it was one of the best Kerry speeches I’ve ever seen. It starts out slow but soon gets going. Jeez, where was this John Kerry in 2004?

DENVER - The "unity" theme here went a little overboard at one point on the floor last night, at least as far as Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) is concerned. On the very night that Kerry delivered his rousing partisan speech to the Democratic National Convention, skewering John McCain as a flip-flopper, he ran into his mortal enemy, billionaire oilman T. Boone Pickens, on the floor. Talk about...

The liberal media's growing enthusiasm in their reporting from Denver is matching the growing enthusiasm of Democratic delegates. Take Time's Swampland blog. After John Kerry's speech last night, Karen Tumulty swooned in a post simply titled "John Kerry. Wow." I was feeling sorry for John Kerry having to follow Bill Clinton in the speaking lineup, but he electrified the audience...

You have to give the Dems credit. They simply will not accept a loss, regardless of the results. Theresa Heinz Kerry still thinks her husband won in 2004, as well as 2000: This convention, Ms. Heinz Kerry said, is “full of meaning and full of opportunity, and if you, as I, believe, and I know a lot of you do, we did not lose the last election, nor did Al Gore lose his last election....

Interesting addendum to the Kerry speech story. I hear on good authority that he wrote the whole thing himself....

Kerry Katona checked out of hospital yesterday after undergoing a £15,000 boob job - just a week after being declared bankrupt. The former Atomic Kitten had breast reduction surgery to reduce her GG cups into DD-cup, with the operation filmed and paid for by her forthcoming MTV fly-on-the-wall show, Whole Again. She also had [...]

An interesting (and ridiculous, of course) accusation, considering that Kerry conceded the race with his campaign acknowledging that he lost it. If Teresa Kerry truly believes the election was stolen, why did her husband concede the very next day, refusing to contest it? This convention, Ms. Heinz Kerry said, is “full of meaning and full of [...]

I now have the video for the excellent speech given by John Kerry at the convention last night (with transcript previously posted here.) It turns out that, according to Josh Marshall, Kerry wrote the speech himself. During the 2004 campaign I sometimes felt that Kerry was being harmed by taking the advice of political advisers [...]
