And there were some moments of high drama too.
When Senator Obama, somewhat anti-climactically, appeared via video after her speech it became immediately evident that their littlest daughter was somehow holding the microphone. And not shy about using it.

One has to be a parent to truly appreciate the terrifying possibilities raised by that scenario. The thought of my six-year-old clutching an instrument that would permit him to share his unique insights with representatives of the national and international media as well as a couple of million Americans worked its way into my nightmares this past morning.

But Malia Ann Obama performed superbly. As did her mom, who apparently was quite the fan of the Brady Bunch as a child. (If Republicans wish to paint Michelle Obama as a radical, then they now better be ready to take incoming from an entire generation raised on Bobby and Cindy).

That would be a lot of incoming!:popcorn:

1. I didn't think Obama appeared "anti-climactically"...
...via satellite after his wife's speech.

It was the icing on the cake.
