I forgot how awful the first night of conventions usually are.

Sherrod Brown!

Why does he always use a fake voice when he speaks though?

I must admit...

I want to see the reaction for Ted. I have a heart.  Wink

My Dad, however, will probably be sick. Two of his most hated political figures will be on tonight - Ted Kennedy and Jimmy Carter.

I was in Denver earlier today and it was quite amusing. I told one of those Pumas to go to hell when they were trying to talk to me.

I feel a little bad for Pelosi. Clearly no one gave a sh**t.


That being said, she was awful.

I love love love Jimmy Carter. If only he was as effective during his presidency as he has been post-presidency.

Based on what we have seen thus far, expect a negative convention bounce for Obama. Tongue

Things should change when Kennedy shows up though. That might wake the crowd up.

Surprise appearance? Wasn't he supposed to speak?

I thought the extent of his appearance was solely going to be in a video.

I've never seen Jesse Jackson Jr. speak before, but I think he has a bright future ahead of him.

He could be the next. . .Barack Obama?

Maybe if he had a different name and a different father.

I think any success he may face is negated because his name is Jesse Jackason.

Agreed.  It's unfortunate his father has to be a such a race-baiter.

MSNBC didn't even show that wonderful speech. Too busy talking about how great McCain is.
