Day 3 was over, not too many thoughts on the matter other than I thought Bill Clinton did a great job with his speech. Though people can whisper and wonder about whether or not Bill and Hillary are really going to pull the lever for Obama, the truth is, it doesn't matter (they live in New York), but what they say and do for him on the campaign trail does. If Bill can stay on message like he was tonight,...

I didn’t blog tonight because I was busy worrying about Betty and having dinner with my sister. I don’t care what anyone else thinks — I think (Bill) Clinton’s speech was mediocre. For him, & for this campaign. Were I his speechwriting consultant, I would have sent him back to the drawing board. It was too [...]

Why do Democratic presidential nominees always have to find their voices AFTER they lose? Senator Kerry should have so been the keynote speaker over the bland, post-partisan rhetoric of Mark Warner. I've simply never seen Kerry speak with so much passion and conviction. It gave me goosebumps. He finally laid into McCain and it's a shame none of the networks carried it. In case you don't have 15 minutes...

If he did this in 2004, he'd be running for his second term.
