5. Yes.. it matters...... because the speech tomorrow isn't for us...

it's for the undecided voter.

And they're viewing it through the prism of the MSM.


So.... the way the MSM spins it is EXTREMELY important.

7. They'll presume to know what he intended, and why, claim he either got it or didn't,
based on the presumption to read his mind. And all this in the first few minutes after the speech.

Cut to ad, cue next presumptive insight. Discuss.

10. No they won't.
They'll call Obama aloof, not connecting with those blue-collar (white) folks, no emotion, blah, blah, blah.

I'm watching PBS and mute the commentary afterwards.

11. I actually think they will fall all over themselves with praise.
I am sure they had their points prepared in advance for Biden tonight and both of the CLinton speeches. But Obama has such a moving oratory, I don't think they can bash it too much.
