Olbermann: Bill still has "100% of the fastball"
I couldn't agree more. What a hell of a perfect speech. Couldn't have been any stronger. The Big Dog's still got it!

3. He was wonderful.
I've been very worried about him, he seemed to tired, angry, and defeated by the end of the primaries, and in a word, unwell. But he looks wonderful tonight, rested and healthy and energetic.

Bill's back to his old optimistic self, and I loved the way he used the themes from his '92 campaign for this one: the man from/of Hope, "too young and inexperienced," etc. Perfect!

:woohoo:

8. Yeah, it adds real depth to his commentary
Edited on Wed Aug-27-08 08:45 PM by Cheney Killed Bambi
to not just spout off sports cliches, but to actually use sports intelligently as a frame of reference.

9. I liked this line among many good moments in his speech
about the fact that in dealing with the world, America should offer the power of example, instead of the example of power (or something like that).
