1. I think the democrats are coming around to how damn important this is.
It takes a party some time to move, but once it gets moving...

4. I'm enjoying it so far...
Edited on Mon Jul-26-04 08:03 PM by RoyGBiv
I'm getting better vibes than I did in 2000, but I dunno if that's because I'm hungrier now than I was then. Eight years of Clinton made me somewhat complacent.

Anyway, I'm inspired, and I feel a bit foolish. I went out and got a 6-pack and am now sitting here at my computer positioned so the television is directly in front of me. I have a beer, a bag of chips, and am having these surges of emotions that people normally associate with sporting events.

8. Al Gore's speech was masterful!
"This is America, where any little boy or girl can grow up to win the popular vote."

"I don't want you to think that I've spent the last four years counting and re-counting sheep."

You, go Al!!! :headbang::bounce:

9. BTW ...

Someone else may have mentioned this in one of the number of threads on the convention, but I wanted to add my 2 cents.

Bill Richardson is an excellent choice for the convention chairman. It's one of the things that's making this work right so far.
