8. Barney Smith was AWESOME.
I love that he totally took a shot at the current administration. It was a beautiful thing to behold, the little guy fighting back. Loved it!

9. I thought all the "regular people" were well-spoken and persuasive
Barney was great and, of course, had one of the best one-liners of the convention.

15. Best "Everyman" line of the night. We NEED catch phrases like this to combat the simple RW
Rovian talking points they always come up with.
