Towering rhetoric with a bit of substance. I'm ready to run through a brick wall.

It ain't over yet! C'mon people buck up. This is hardly a defeat. He lost by three percentage points.

I'd be inclined to deduct points for preachifying--but that's just me!

Watched it with my 20-year-old. His eyes were teary, too.
In that speech, Obama wrapped his arms around the whole country.
Yes we can! YES WE CAN!

This was too preachy and too long. A speech like this has a place when you win, but Obama didn't. This isn't a stump speech or a victory speech, and once again Obama refused to go into specifics and instead engaged in platitudes. I give him a 6.

20. I'll disagree with the Oracle and say that I was more impressed with this one |
|
than the one he gave in Iowa...I think my judgment's fairly objective, as an Edwards supporter!
