I just turned on Fox (9:05) and what a bunch of BS as Mike McDonald tries desperately and fails in every conceivable aspect of imitating Ray Charles in his rendition of America right down to the tempo, accompaniment, mannerisms and warbly voice.

Worst yet was his dedication to (paraphrasing as I thought I would get sick) to "all those who want our country back."

Hey, Mickey, you ain't Ray and you suck!!!

If this is any indication of how this night is going to be, its going to be a 5 refill, adult beverage night!!!

Thank you and precisely. I could not but help think of America's 'poor' and 'middle class' and should Obama win; how they might compare their lives and their future - as they live it - against the the realities of the 'poor' and 'more poor' who 'quantify' Russia's middle class and who historically, fill the Russian cities and countryside as they do in all totalitarian countries. Can they even imagine their 'health care' program?

Obama's promise is a LIE. . .he cannot create a 'heaven on earth'; and there is a 'hell to pay'; should enough people imagine otherwise.

The missing word tonight never uttered by Obama was FREEDOM. . .this is the first promise our Country holds and the most important one; but it does not factor well for 'Leftist Obama'. (Or, perhaps I just missed it?)

Would also bet that many in that audience have never held an American flag in their hands - ever. I hope it felt good; and that when John McCain wins; they will hang on to it.
