Laura is the perfect delegate.
I don't know if Laura is "the perfect delegate" or not. She is intelligent and charming but IMHO, The Prez should have gone himself and faced down these people. I was not in favor of him missing the NAACP Convention. Take your fight to the enemy's camp. The Prez told Kerry: "You can run but you can't hide." We must not appear to be "hiding" from possible hostile audiences.
I dunno. Maybe I'm missing something here. If I am, please let me know.
