Obama was brilliant. Grand Slam speech and focus.

 

[fairsheet]

Yes...absolutely.

 

[Friday13]

Absolutely!

ZZZZzzzzzzz - same speech as in 2008.
Painful to watch... embarassing for the audience at times... same teleprompter reading skills - quirky jerky side to side head action too... he just never learns.

Just WOW!

Obama was brilliant. Grand Slam speech and focus.

Not hardly. NBC just noted the excitement gap, pointing out that Barack Obama could not rise up to the level of Bill Clinton's speech making of last night. Now as you know NBC is MSNBC's [the Obama network's] parent company and when papa NBC turns thumbs down on Obama's big speech the Anointed One flubbed it.

best DNC I've ever seen......and Pres Obama drove it home.

It was an excellent closer. This convention was a success.

The speech wasn't for your kind. It was for the sane people in the country not the far right wing nuts.

 

[Cicero]

Obama blew it. He needed to match or exceed Bill Clinton's performance and he failed. People noticed.

 

[fairsheet]

I'm concerned that Mandater and Cicero apparently aren't moved (Not!).

 

[Minotaur]

I saw both speeches. As great as Clinton was, Obama rose even higher. Seriously amazing speech. Not just good, GREAT!

I got a clue for you. He isn't running against Clinton. He makes Romney look like someone running for dog catcher.

 

[Cicero]

Suuuure it was. "Trust in the farce Luke."

Krauthammer says it had "cadence" but was empty.... a "vision" with numbers pulled out of a hat .... (shovel-ready with no way to get the shovels). None of his achievements mentioned. Flat. No content. Hollow with no meat on the bone. Obama told us what he wants with no mention of how we'll get it. But he (Krauthammer)loved it........really.

 

[Minotaur]

That may have been the most powerful part! I am blown away.

 

[Cicero]

Obama's mistake -- and he makes 'em like clockwork -- was to select the party's only living Great Communicator to precede him. People compared the two speeches and concluded that Obama is no Bill Clinton . . . and that was a strategic error. You do not place yourself to be compared to the best in the world at what he does when you are not yourself ready with your 'A' game.

Oh, Similie, I love you so. It hurts me to see you so misguided.
