I'm loving it!!!!!!!
Oh he looks good!!! Confident!!! At ease!!! He's loving this too!!!
I love this too!!!
God Bless George W. Bush!!!!
Amen. Slam Reagan and you better hang up your political spurs.
Ya know what is the best part? He doesn't mind speaking his mind about what he believes in!
Awesome!
You noticed that too!!
Do you think he needs to say something about an exit strategy in Iraq?
That was one of my favorite lines of the night. He just let that sentence hang out there. Everyone KNOWS where he stands. He doesn't have to spin, lie and explain. Incredible line.
Again: such a well choreographed evening... this speech was precisely laid out. Very well constructed. very well delivered. Terrorism - we know where he stands...

She indeed is. I doubt she's sleeping 3 hours per night. When she gets home tommorow afternoon, I'll tuck her into bed and wake her up on Sunday morning.
I will check to see if she has it.
I loved the "you may be a lot of things" quote!!! ;)
Do not have to face them at HOME!!
The chanting of USA USA USA and the carrying of USA signs was probably outlawed at the Democratic National Convention.
I know that...I was just clarifying in case you thought I was picking on you...which I wasn't. :)
Where's all the folks who thought he was lifeless now?
Still awed by the set==this is the most beautiful stage I have EVER seen at a convention!
Isn't he? This is a brilliant speech, contrasting his resolve with Kerry's wishy-washiness, his clarity with Kerry's ambivalence.
The talking heads will probably complain about the joke. Fortunately the American people will get the message--Bush is talking past the media. Can't wait for the debate when Bush's straight-forward candor is contrasted with Kerry's flip-flopping lack of substance for all to see.
Condi there!
Chanting USA!
Go lady!
I think I hear a protester somewhere in the background, helling while the President is speaking about the war on terror.
