"Sometimes I come off as a little blunt and for that you can thank that white haired lady up there..."

Now he is telling about military and the difficult decision of sending them in harms way...The wounded and grieving families praying for the President and he is humbled by it.


They will look at NYC and see buildings fell and a nation rose.

Very unusual for Cheney , and Bush's Family to leave before the speech has ended . Does anyone know what's up?

I hate to mention the man, but the contrast to Kerry is like black and white/apples and oranges. Stunning.

This convention bounce should be like that of an Olympic Triple Jumper.

What a pleasure and blessing the past 4 years with this president has been to America. I pray the blinders of those who hate him are ripped off now.

You say, "You're very astute and keenly perceptive, son." You say, "You're very astute and keenly perceptive, son."

I think that he is going to turn out alright.

I've been watching all evening. They cut away from the speaker and get shots of members in the crowd. I've seen many that were just *sitting* there. I saw one *yawning* yesterday.

My fave part so far is where he admits he has human faults. Talking about those that make fun of his tongue twisting (that we all do) words is precious to me.
