Actually, fantastic content.
But I don't think writing wise it blew me away. I hope he or his writers turn it up the style quotient a notch or two.

that aside, it IS the best speech I have ever had the opportunity to hear.
I can now say I have hope again for the future.

20. I was thinking the same thing |

I'd wager most fence-sitters were converted — if they were watching. Those for whom Heebus turned water into Holy Kool-Aid weren't terribly impressed, though. http://rr-bb.com/showthread.php?t=57588

22. Just watched that at a party |
|
Filled with Democrats of all ages and races. We are psyched! My hands are numb from clapping, and I'm hoarse. I think something like two dozen people signed on as volunteers - we know we can't afford to lose this one.
Fantastic speech. And the overwhelming crowds - not just in the stadium, but in public places everywhere - give me hope. Obama wasn't my first choice as candidate, but now I think he's the best we could have chosen.
Damn, but he's good!

30. He really did exactly what needed to be done |
|
Unified the party and threw down the gauntlet to the Republicans...he's not some weak liberal that will allow himself to be swift boated...and unless you are a die-hard Republican or have a heart of stone, how could you not be inspired by that speech?
This may be the post-convention high speaking but I really, really, really think we'll pull this one off
