Last night’s speeches

Posted by Len on Wednesday, June 4th, 2008 at 10:29 am CT in Democrats, Election 2008, Politics, Republicans

There were three speeches delivered last night. I’m going to post two of them here. I really can’t stand to watch the third one again. The second is a stretch. The first is, I believe, the greatest political speech of this decade thus far. Watch the first one, then, if you have time, watch the second. The contrast between the two is really quite striking.

   

(The first was delivered before a crowd of about 20,000 in St. Paul, Minnesota. The second before a crowd of about 200 in Kenner, Louisiana. The person whose idea it was to have Johnny McCain give a speech last night really needs to be fired.)

    I have to confess I cried a few tears at the first one, and I haven’t done that (for the right reasons) in a very long time.
    I’ve shed more than a few for the wrong reasons when I have listened to our politicians in the past 8 years.
