Did anyone hear Tim Kaine?

[Nancy Waterman]

The speech reads really well, very impressive, but I didn't hear him. How did he do?

2. Hey you, glad it reads well. He had the right terms but skipped Iraq.

He had a bit of a tough time getting started.

How are you?

3. Kaine response thread here. Wear asbestos. Burning criticisms.

4. The video is up at MSNBC now. I thought he did a good job.

But I got blasted for saying so.

It is under "Democrats respond" on the right.

5. The speech reads beautifully. I was really impressed.

But I worried about the delivery. That unfortunately in our TV age is at least half of it.

7. I'm sorry. . .there is a lot of that I just don't like. . .

You can't preach about equality when you are a governor of a state that regularly attempts to codify the most treacherous anti-gay laws in the country. And I have difficulty believing in the sincerity of a message that calls for all people to come together as you sign legislation making some of those people second-class citizens. That is hardly good service or good management.

6. I couldn't watch any of it...but hubby said he did a good job...at which

point I told him to "push off," because I was into my music and didn't care about any of it.

But...he has good sense so maybe the feckless Dems made a decision that worked with Americans for Spin.

Not dissing Hubby, but I'm a more Lefty Dem than he is... So, I guess if he liked Kaine..then Reid and Pelosi are SAFE whereas...I want them GONE as LEADERS. :shrug:

8. Yahoo has a link to it on the main page.

I thought he did fine. A lot of snarky comments, some funny, some disagree with the angle he took, some people thought he did a good job.

Watch and judge for yourself. :)
