"Do you think the boy will want a gratuity?"
An unenthusiastic crowd, a candidate who speaks like a JFK on a triple dose of Thorazine who could only drone on about how horrible republicans are, yada yada yada and the lizard tongue was in full slither mode. At the one point of the speech where dems could have proven their commitment to our military they gave quick applause when Kerry bragged clinton and the dem leadership made the military we have today. Kerry wanted to make clear that "we" will all unite in the face of terrorism, at that McAwful jumps from his chair clapping wildly, nobody else did.
At the very end of Kerry's verbal torture Teresa comes out on stage, there they are all alone with the applause.... Then it starts to feel uncomfortable, John and Teresa want clinton and the other bozos to come on up on stage and join them in this epochal moment! John points at someone in the crowd, he gestures, come on up! Nobody comes. He continues, point, point, come on, come on! (and it went on....) Finally John and Teresa realize they're on their own, they leave the stage, waving and smiling until they got to the steps. Teresa looked displeased.
