    This. Michelle's was very good though. We'll see what Obama can do tomorrow.

      Wow!

      Slick Willy's still got it. Great speech.

      Wish he could run again...

        I'd vote for Slick Willy in a heart beat. The one guy who makes me think twice about having presidential term limits.

                Any reservations Clinton had due to 2008 disagreements were washed away by memories of the GOP witch hunts of his last years.

                I have no doubt that he was as behind this speech as one could be.

                    Yeah...at least we don't have another Rice. But in the end, Hillary had the same convention presence as all living GOP presidents...combined.

                      I believe she's in China.

                      Is it convenient that she's on the other side of the planet right now? For Obama's campaign AND her 2016 plans?

                      Sure. I'll give you that.

                        I thought the convention was quite good yet not great after the first night...with topical content coming up a bit short on business/economy.

                        Bill Clinton fixed that. The dems have now had a great first two nights.

                          I thought the second night was General Products' #4* hull up until Bill started. Then he did his thing and basically the rest of the night was forgotten.

                            Good speech by the old boy. I too had the same feeling, which is that Clinton should be serving his 5th term right now! Amazing how he can go double his allotted time and nobody cares.

                            I have noticed a total difference in themes though. The GOP convention was about returning to a past time. Retrying policies that had already been tried before, or bringing social issues back to an earlier era. Maybe that's a winner. We'll find out soon enough. The Dem convention was a lot more about where we're going in the future. Interesting difference.

                              And yet, he thought he could, and even guaranteed it. Sorry, Frank Marshall Davis, but socialism only lasts as long as there is other people's money to take. Once that's gone, you're screwed.

                                We're not a socialist country and Obama isn't a socialist. No matter how many times you say it it isn't true.
