Why couldn't Schweitzer have given the keynote address?

[Darth_Ole]

Charismatic, sense of humor, a newcomer to the national scene, addresses the problem of oil addiction, and a nice mix of criticism of McCain and praise for Obama, and knows how to interact with an audience...

1. I would have voted for that! nt

[AspenRose]

2. Deval Patrick did a good job too.

Either one of them would have been better than Warner, IMHO.

3. He is amazing!

[sandnsea]

4. I'll just pretend he is n/t

[wellstone dem]

7. great idea!

[pstans]

5. Keynote? What about VP?

I love Biden, but think Schweitzer would have locked down the Mountain West for Obama.

[Frank Booth]

6. Yep. He would have been much better than Warner.

It made sense to reach out to Virginia, which can be the only reason they gave it to Warner.

Schweitzer kicks ass!

13. 100 times better than techno-businessman Warner. A "real" person!

[OwnedByFerrets]

8. I think he just did....in my mind anyway.

[BadgerKid]

9. Commentators are jawboning on PBS..what's going on in Denver? n/t

[Hippo_Tron]

10. Because he's Governor of the wrong state

IMO if he wanted someone from Virginia he should've picked Jim Webb.

[Doremus]

11. Schweitzer is great!

He should have been giving lessons last week.

Sheesh, you'd think somebody would know how to stage a convention.

I keep thinking of the beating we're going to take next week, ugh.

12. Deomocrats always miss the point. This guy is alive (!) and fantastic!

[JFKfanforever]

14. What do you mean? :-) This IS the keynote address!

He is getting standing roars of approval from the crowd.  He
hit it out of the park and everyone knows it.... I predict a
bright future for him!
