Earlier, ABC had some guy from paris providing commentary. There was a delay. Kind of annoying, plus he was hawking a biography about Reagan he was doing, that seemed kind of tacky.

Nah, I think he's trying to absorb everything that is going on...
Here's Nancy at the top...she looks fine, a strong grip on her escort's arm. The two of them exchange a few words. Now they stop at the top of the steps.
Nice close upu of her, I hope someone screencaps it...
Ruffles and Florishes and Hail to the Chief accompany the 21 gun salute...Nancy looks down at her husband...
I am so proud to be an American...
