In the immortal words of the Flight of the Conchords...
Who likes to rock the party? Bill likes to rock the party...
So there I was, wondering what Bill Clinton would say about Obama. There we were, dealing with the talking heads' commentary about last night:
"Did she do enough" they said...
"Should she have discussed policy," they said....
And of course, we know she did say enough. But take a look at tonight.
Bill Clinton, our fabulous ex-president, our "warm-up" for Joe Biden, blows the crowd away. Hits a homerun shot. From global warming, to experience, to military, to you name it, Bill did everything needed.
I wanted an attack dog tonight. I wanted Bill Clinton or Joe Biden to spank me some Republicans. If Joe Biden can do the same as Bill Clinton tonight, then we are in some good shape heading into tomorrow night.
So, of the four nights of the convention, this will be the night that actually has a real impact. People pay attention when Bill Clinton talks...and tonight, he supported the hell out of Barack Obama.
and I know John Kerry gave a good speech, and I know if he would have talked like that we would be re-electing him right now, but no one gives a speech like Bill Clinton. This is the speech that other than tomorrow night's speech by Obama, will truly define the convention of 2008.
