11. Obama's speech looked inward to the heart..
almost eclipsing Clinton's masterful vision for taking back America..

Obama is the first person ever to come along that is comparable to Clinton. We are blessed to have him in our camp.

2. Tough call between Reagan and Dean
Dean knows how to energize people, but Ron Reagan, Jr. demonstrated one very good reason for getting Bush out of office. Science commits suicide when it adopts a creed.

4. Loved them ALL in their own unique way, though Obama stole the show.
He is "our rising star" and I was highly captivated by his words, delivery, presence. But, I can't choose because they're all wonderful. ;)

Bill Clinton and Barack Obama are most definitely at the top... but it's too hard to choose between them.

I thought Teresa's speech was very inspirational as well.

And I can't wait to hear Dennis Kucinich tonight! :D

6. Rev. David Alston (Kerry's shipmate)
had the most stirring speech about John Kerry. He is also one of the few speakers who did not talk about him/her self.

He was there for John.

7. I'm torn between B. Clinton and B. Obama
Due to his already established star appeal, I think Clinton was incredible and got the ball rolling. Barak Obama is fantastic and most people had never heard him speak before last night.

My 19 yr-old niece who had just been asking where she could learn more about the upcoming election watched with me. She was visiby moved by him.

His story is truly an inspirational American dream story.

8. This sounds corny, but I had goose bumps listening to Obama.
My favorite so far.
