Amazing....watching CNN, they are pretty much trashing *'s speech.

Someone mentioned that is was nothing but a Rove fear/terror speech - wondering where the domestic program stuff was. Go figure - I thought that they would be jacking off over the speech, and they are doing somewhat of a 180. I just don't get the media!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. Gergen even thought Kaine was good - (I did not!)

2. Funny, isn't it...??

Kaines speech was great in substance,but the delivery left a lot to be desired. That a CNN member would actually *LISTEN* to a speech is amazing.

7. I thought Kaine was good

because his folksy style was a good counter to the prezzledent's folksy style...I even thought Kaine was some sort of preacher when he first came on--I honestly thought they were going to ask for some prayers for the country.

So I thought he came off as 'real' and confident to the average person.

3. The next repuke that says Dems are spineless

or have no ideas I'm going to go postal!

9. It is, unfortunately, true

My two democratic senators voted "yea" on closing cloture for Alito and "nea" on his confirmation. SPINELESS PUSSIES!!! What am I supposed to do???? Pat them on the back for voting against his nomination????? This is pathetic!!!!!

5. Even Watts is not too happy with Bush.

His speech was flat. It was designed to get applause from the Congressional Audience.

6. My thought?

I'm actually kinda happy about how MSNBC is reporting - divisive. They are highlighting the division down the middle of the chamber. It's good that they are highlighting the fact that the parties are super-divided (considering how much some are eating our own on the Alito matter - a little unity in the dem party is a GOOD thing - even if only perceived, it's perceived on the national stage)....

8. So far, very pleased with AC's coverage

Asking tough questions, to McCain now. Even pointed out the positive speech poll #s was due to the fact that people who like *turd are the ones who are more likely to watch the SOTU.
