The Speeches So Far

So far, I liked the down-played Al Gore speech, thought Clinton was a little off and Carter a little ticked off.  Heh.  But don't get me started on Ted Kennedy's speech this week - he bellowed and the content sucked.

On Tuesday, I was floored by the quality of Barack Obama's speech and the horrific delivery of Teresa Heinz.  And whose decision was it to put her speech in network broadcast time instead of the keynote address by Obama?

On Wednesday, I liked the optimism of Governor Granholm, and was not impressed by Edwards.  Don't get me wrong, he's a strong orator, but his voice was coarse and my mind wandered as I noticed that he lifted whole paragraphs of his address from previous advertisements and stump speeches.

And that is just my quick take on the Democratic convention.
