Okay, lets see how long it takes before the Fox talking heads start trashing the speech.

I used to think these pundits were quick. They get the speech in advance, and can AT LEAST read it before it is spoken aloud. Not that I'd do any better, but they have a huge advantage over the viewer.

Who the heck watches those fools anyway. I'm at work watching the online feed, so no "benefit" of pundits.

Awesome speech, out of the ballpark.

I did not see tears. All I notice was a slight pitch in his voice at the end of his speech. Great speech. Know that hole that Kerry left at the convention?( not talking about his agenda) Bush got him. Lookin good, real good......

For the Demodogs, he is an orator who appeals to all "those stupid people"...

Count me as one of those.

You too, and many others here, I guess...

Now wouldn't he prove to us the ass he is if he had said otherwise. Jeez, now that he said that he'll go back on the attack using DNC talking points.

It was solid and got the job done

I think you're right. I was a little worried in the beginning but he worked it pretty well, very well.
