Why are there no cable channels showing the Kucinich speech? It looks like he’s getting a good response (thank god for the intertubes). I actually would prefer to hear what he has to say as opposed to hearing the media talk to each other about Hillary Clinton.

If it weren’t for my love of Anderson Cooper, I would totes turn off CNN.  Best election team, my ass.  Please, someone give Carville and Begula new jobs far, far away from any television cameras.

Yes Brian Williams, let’s talk about the glass ceiling with Chuck Todd, Tom Brokaw, Keith Olbermann (where’s Chris Matthews?  Oh, being chased by women calling him a sexist pig) … none of whom are women.  Maybe we should talk about the glass ceilings in your own house. Oh, nice save though, with Ann Curry and Andrea Mitchell.

Why is every channel cutting away from Patrick Deval?  I actually would prefer to hear what he has to say as opposed to hearing the media talk to each other about Hillary Clinton.

Mark Warner is boring.  Mark Warner is a good man but Mark Warner should not have been given this time slot. Mark Warner has very big teeth.

Rachel Maddow is crazy cool. Peggy Noonan is crazy.  That is all.

Rachel Maddow’s grimaces when people around her are spouting bullshit are pretty priceless.

Why are they talking over Brian Schweitzer?  I actually would prefer to hear what he has to say as opposed to hearing the media talk to each other about Hillary Clinton. Do you sense the theme?

Bill Clinton knows how to work the camera … the tears, the whispered I love you …  don’t for a minute think he wasn’t aware of the camera right in front of him.

Hillary Clinton.  She had to bring it and she brought it.  In the first two minutes, she made it clear.  And she kept making it clear.  Over and over again.  Take that PUMAs.

OK.  Now Bill is just looking silly with the bit bottom lip and the flushed teary face. But he can tell she’s banging it out of the ballpark.

Man, Michelle looks good.

I have to say that this may be the best speech I’ve ever heard Hillary Clinton give.  If she had done speeches like this in the primaries, it might be a different kind of convention this week.  Jeez.  She so pwned this speech.  Even Andrew Sullivan might be impressed. Uh, guess not.

Man, nice use of Harriet Tubman.  That was inspiring.  The whole speech was inspiring. Damn. Now we just need to worry about Bill tomorrow.  But tonight?  Girl, you done did good.
