Obama's acceptance speech

[aristotle]

You decide: 1) much sound and fury signifying nothing.
2) thou does protest too much.
3) all hat and no cattle.
4) the Second Coming
5) nice choreography
6) would make Josef Goebbels proud
7) pot meets kettle
8) change we can believe in???
9) anarchy is just around the corner
10) "survivalists" membership numbers soar.

I found the crowd at Invesco Field fascinating to watch.. They weren't just Obama fans...they were worshippers. Never seen a phenomena like this.

Well, having listened to most (OK, some, as much as I could handle) of Hillary's speech, and not even having heard Obama's (yet), I'm gonna go with #5. There's been some serious backroom deals going on, and the overall choreography of it all is worthy of a Bob Fosse Broadway production.

6, and I think Leni Reifensathl would have have been equally proud of the use of cameras.

I am surprised they haven't title anything "Triumph of the Will" or something like Triumph of Change". It has been well choreographed.

I did not even bother to watch it. 1. I know he is dis-honest so no point in listening to him. 2. He is not even close to being qualified for the job. So again, I see no point in listenting to him. I know I need to remain informed but the "man" has yet to say anything. Just a bunch of "stuff" not related to the job desricption. The biggest problem is that the alternative 'taint all that much better. As always I will be voting against one person and not for the the other. A sorry state of affairs. Layoutshooter

Although most of these options apply to a certain extent, my pick is #6. My wife (a lifelong liberal democrat) tried to watch it and turned it off after about five minutes. She's talking like she's going to vote for McCain since Hillary didn't make the cut, and she's NEVER voted for a Republican. After getting a glimpse of him framed by those columns in this Greek god-like setting, I'm thinking only the kool-aid drinkers could appreciate this production.

Same here!! Friends of mine Lib ladies speak McCain!! UUHHH??

Heavy on the hat, light on the cattle, no doubt. But, it was a very well delivered speech, and we all know appearance trumps content for many people. I think people who are on the fence about where to throw their support may have been swayed by his performance. It will be interesting to see if he gets a bump in the polls.
