Any idea how I can see a video of the midnight speech?
check C-Span. They may have it in their archives.
www.cspan.org Do a search for "kerry springfield"
The part 31 min into the speech about 1 guy saluting him and saying "thats america" is my favorite part
His midnight rally was so stupid on so many fronts. Just 1/2 hour earlier, the President of the United States stood in MSG and gave an incredible speech in front of tens of thousands of people. It was presidential, it was profound and it was brilliant. 1/2 hour later Kerry and his Assistant, John Edwards show up, wearing JEANS and flannel shirts in front of maybe 500 people who looked like they were dragged out of bed and said NOTHING new, nothing deep..NOTHING. I was expected some whammies thrown towards Bush to warrant this unprecedented retreat from protocol. But it was nothing. Which is what he conveys to people.. NOTHING. Nothing at all.
