A lot of republicans are going to say that -- and I have to think that will make the liberal democrats pretty upset. after all, what good is a "democrat response" if republicans are happy with it?

Kaine is a pretty liberal person for Virginia, and he is more personally liberal than he projected to get elected. We have yet to see the full extent of that disingenuous part of his nature, but after spending a year promising not to raise any taxes, and in fact to VETO any tax increase, until the transportation trust fund was protected by the constitution, he just after 1 week in office proposed a billion a year in new transportation taxes.

But a liberal virginian is still much better than a typical democrat.

My daughter said she had trouble concentrating because of his eyebrow (she had to watch for her civics class) and my wife came over, watched for about 20 seconds, got a funny laugh, and left saying something about creepy.

Yeah, what was up with that brow?!? Who does he think he is, The Rock?!?

As soon as Kaine began, I heard the ghost of Mike Dukakis spewing the technocrat mantra when he said,

"In Virginia – and other states – we’re moving ahead by focusing on service, competent management and results."

Tells me the '08 RAT primaries are going to be the leftists vs. the technocrats. Pass the popcorn, please.

What I got out of Kaine's speech:

there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way,there's a better way, etc. etc

LOL! Well, it was refreshing not to hear the President lambasted as a war monger, etc. as the Dems have done in the past. If I had had to listen to old Teddy, or Kerry, or Hilliary, I would have had a return of the flu I had last week. :^)
