Michelle Obama, What a Brilliant Talk!!!
Wow.
It's been a long, long time since I heard a speech that was as well-organized, articulate, and, as MSNBC's Keith Olbermann intoned, "pitch perfect" as that just delivered in Denver by Michelle Obama. At the risk of being a flat-out sycophant, I just couldn't find enough good words to describe it any more than I could find a single thing to criticize in it.
Traditionally, opening night of these political conventions is kind of flat, a gradual build-up to the main event. I'm not sure it can get any better. Everyone who speaks for the rest of this gathering -- including most especially Barack -- has a high bar to climb indeed.
Wow.
We would be so fortunate as a nation to have this woman as our First Lady and her husband as our President. They are America as it can and should be.
