Me too, had c-span on from 8-11, and didn';t go on FR until after the convention ended.
You're right. That reminds me of going to an Orioles game after 9/11/01. At the 7th inning stretch, instead of the usual "Take me out to the Ballgame", they played "God Bless America." 45,000 people singing "God Bless America" was just amazing. The thought of it still brings tears to my eyes.
Me too..Just wanted to sit back and enjoy it..However, a few tiems I wished that C-span had commerical breaks...LOL
I saw on the early early CBS "Up to the Minute" or the ABC equivalent. They showed a short clip and stated that the peace officer's injuries were "minor".
Yes, lol, that would be nice.
I was VERY pleasantly surprised by McCain's speech. I clapped and cheered.
Rudy I was not surprised about. But did love his Kerry jabs.
The women who got up and talked about husbands, brothers, and sons really really really tore me up. The one woman thanking everyone for the flags and pictures etc etc. Man o man, I was blubbering.
