Obama has set the bar high by taking the high road

[MrScorpio]

Tonight, the Republicans are proving that age old adage true that "White Men Can't Jump"

[scheming daemons]

1. or "white women"

[liberalmuse]

2. I love it!

So very true. The high road is so much better. The faces at the Dem convention weren't twisted with ugly, mocking, bitterness.

[Frances]

3. Even their cheers sound different

Republicans are just plain mean people

[Democrats_win]

4. I was wondering how the two conventions compared.

So many speakers at the DNC said that McCain was a good man. However, they said he plans to take the country in the wrong direction. The way his campaign has gone proves this.

[FedUpWithIt All]

5. Look at this and see what the people (of all parties) think of the snark.

Listening to Palin's speech tonight, I cried. Not tears of joy, hope, or happiness. I cried because i am scared that her rhetoric will affect people's decisions about America's future. This speech was scarier than any movie, any war, and anything I can think of. If people believe this obvious pandering of ideologies, I pray we can get through these next four years. less

I have been watching this for days to determine how I should vote. Palin's speech has been the deciding factor for me. Aside from the issues, she has about as much experience as my next door neighbor. I can't believe she has the nerve to ignore the obvious and come out as if she isn't a bit aware of the fact that hardly anyone knows who she is and she hasn't earned the standing to be attacking other's experience. The only thing that I have seen that is similar is George Bush's complete obliviousness to the public view. Maybe like him, she only watches FOX news. I was hoping McCain would be more in tune to the American people. His judgement is a serious question. less

Wow, I'm extremely disappointed with Palin's speech. I was willing to give her a chance. despite the questions the press (rightly!) have been asking about her (being a complete unknown to most of us in the lower 48), but she didn't say a single thing to dissuade my gut feeling - this person is a truly frightening choice for the control of the US nuclear arsenal. Bulldog my &%$#@ ***! Try COMPLETE AMATEUR!!! less

I thought the speech, my mistake, speeches tonight were extremely nasty. I keep thinking we all have to live in this country after this election. The Republicans showed themselves for who they really are tonight - Willing to tear down every shred of unity to be in power. less
