Thanks dragonr: Very interesting synopsis! I guess they are gearing up for the big bang at the end of the week. I expect the stadium speach will be the most interesting and dangerous (for Barack personally). I watched RFK in L.A. just prior to his demise! I think he is taking a risk. I overheard someone say they are watching to see if he 'gets it!" Some people suck!

Since, JFK was the last to give an outdoor acceptance speech. It all seems like a re-enactment of JFK's DNC. I object to it! I feel they needed all new shit with new vision, not so nostalgic (copy cat)! I feel like, 'dah, I've been here before!'

The Kennedy's needed to pass the torch in '92 and force Clinton to pass it now! We all feel for Teddy, but it made it sad for those of us that remember all his bro's!! His speech was the best! Seeing people cry, his relatives, took the enjoyment out! We know he is loved and admired! We also know how loved he was when he dumped his Lincoln in the ice water and left the scene, too! Perhaps, that incident, made him a better person!

I just do not see the enthusiasm of crowd's etc. I have in years past! As boring as baseball can be at times, I equate it to that!

Since, Bill is an excellent speaker, if he cannot motivate, over the top for the Dem's--Biden won't!! I will tune in, because of your optimism!

All the parties unite in the end! We expected that! I must admit, I expected Hillary to ask for donations to pay off her debt though! Or, if Obama had the DNC pay it for her to speak! Just curious! We may never know that!

If Hillary and Obama merged their speeches, they would have some damn fine ones! McCain could not touch um. But, he is catching up now!

Did you happen to see the RNC's platform meeting today on CSPAN?

Appreciate your encouragement and will be tuning back in tomorrow! Thank You! pr :thumbsup:
