OK, do I post the obvious:

or do I post the less-so:

She was back at the bar, showered, dressed, and halfway into drinks and
dinner when the ball finally hit the ground...after going straight over
the mound and somewhere WAY past the lights...

I didn't watch it, I was about 8 miles from the nearest road
canoe camping with my new pup, but from what I read today it
was a great speech for getting clueless white folks to stand
up and chant; USA, USA ! And little else save the usual GOP
lies and half truths denigrating the Dems.

She came off as a provincial rube with a perverse and willful
ignorance about the country she lives in. Mocking community
organizing on Chicago's south side ? What in the hell was her
speechwriter thinking ?

But I'm glad you enjoyed yourself.

USA, USA !! ;-)

You pet your puppy with those fingers...? For shame, for shame.

And if you missed McCain, too, here's the scoop:

Better than fair, not objectively great, but it got the yahoos cheering
their asses off. And yet again, the Dems are gonna have to figure out a
way around it - it had the USA!!! mom and guys in decorated VFW caps
swooning over sonny boy, and Dem rebuttals blasting mom and the VFW is
one surefire way to lose. I'd give it, surprisingly, a 85-90 on content
and about a 70-75 or so on delivery, but it was a rah-rah, so it could
break _seriously_ one way or the other. Impressive moments in a so-so
speech, but it had elements that may or may not click. If they click,
he hit a respectable homer, if not, at worst, he was so-so, so overall,
worst-case, break-even.
