[Pierre.Suave]

3. yes

his message to McCain, Checkmate!

game over.

[Pierre.Suave]

4. I am not blustering here

this speech truly was something very special in American history.

[mainegreen]

5. Good content.

Actually, fantastic content.

But I don't think writing wise it blew me away.
I hope he or his writers turn it up the style quotient a notch or two.

[Pierre.Suave]

6. I thought it was great

and I thought he gave it exactly what it needed.

[AlCzervik]

7. Just overwhelming, it was wonderful.

i watched with my kid and she just loved it but she's been a fan since he entered the race.

[Pierre.Suave]

8. I had to watch it alone

that aside, it IS the best speech I have ever had the opportunity to hear.

I can now say I have hope again for the future.

[Oeditpus Rex]

9. For the first time

I'm really excited about Obama. :)



Seriously — that was masterful. It was presidential.

[Pierre.Suave]

10. I agree

I believe he WON the election tonight.

[Oeditpus Rex]

20. I was thinking the same thing

I'd wager most fence-sitters were converted — if they were watching.



Those for whom Heebus turned water into Holy Kool-Aid weren't terribly impressed, though.

31. This is how we find out who jasonc has on ignore....

:)

[Pierre.Suave]

34. HAHAH

I have nobody on ignore. Honest...

Actually, I am slightly distracted and am trying my best to reply to everybody.

I am going to bed soon though, so if I dont reply to anyone else tonight, please forgive me. :P

[pokerfan]

36. no problemo

:hi:

22. Just watched that at a party

Filled with Democrats of all ages and races. We are psyched! My hands are numb from clapping, and I'm hoarse. I think something like two dozen people signed on as volunteers - we know we can't afford to lose this one.

Fantastic speech. And the overwhelming crowds - not just in the stadium, but in public places everywhere - give me hope. Obama wasn't my first choice as candidate, but now I think he's the best we could have chosen.

Damn, but he's good!

[Pierre.Suave]

23. Doesnt it feel great though?

:hug: heres for our future!

[Starbucks Anarchist]

24. Fuck yes.

:applause:

[Pierre.Suave]

25. YES

Fuck YES!!!!!!!!!

[Reverend_Smitty]

27. It made me want to go out and vote immediately

seriously that was amazing...I can't wait for November!

[Pierre.Suave]

29. It made me hopeful for the future

and proud to be an American. That has not happened a lot lately.

[Reverend_Smitty]

30. He really did exactly what needed to be done

Unified the party and threw down the gauntlet to the Republicans...he's not some weak liberal that will allow himself to be swift boated...and unless you are a die-hard Republican or have a heart of stone, how could you not be inspired by that speech?

This may be the post-convention high speaking but I really, really, really think we'll pull this one off

[Pierre.Suave]

35. barring any tricks

I agree. We have this one.

[Fleshdancer]

32. and more importantly....

it brought GD-P together! Who knew that was possible? :D

[Pierre.Suave]

33. Wow

that REALLY was one hell of a speech!

:rofl:
