Convention grade...C...( he originally said B)
Edited on Wed Aug-27-08 07:39 PM by SoCalDem
so sayeth Republican pundit Mike Murphy.. But hey, Harold Ford (D-LC) gave it a B+..

I am amazed at how few pro-Obama people have been "invited" to speak up.. but boy have we ever had a steady stream of naysayers..:grr:

4. The media has deemed themselves the "balance" to the infomercial that is the DNC
I won't hold my breath thinking the Repukes will get the same treatment next week.

8. It's disgusting..
Nothing but negativity..or tepid positivity..and usually from rightwingers..

All I can say is that we BETTER see the same treatment in Minneapolis.. I want to see Michael Moore critiquing Cindy's speech...and Phil Donahue telling us what he thinks of Mccain's veep choice..

3. The convention itself has been A+++, the coverage has been
disgraceful by the major networks. C-SPAN the only way to go..

6. Until tonight, I would have given it a C but tonight: A-
And after Bill's speech (if the excerpts/indications
are correct), it will be a full A+.

And I think the TONE of the coverage changed tonight
as well, which is IMPORTANT. Up until today, the
sucky corporatist media was trying to keep us divided,
and as of tonight -- with Hillary's gracious call
to make Obama the nominee by acclamation -- they're
on board and are giving this convention the kind
of glowing coverage each party deserves for at least
4 days every 4 years.
