After last night's speech, it was just, "meh.."

McCain is a great patriot, a committed public servant, a maverick and is married to a woman who is more than a pampered rich trophy wife -- she does unpublicized relief work all over the world at her own expense -- but (bless his heart) he is NOT a gifted orator.

Palin's speech smoked him in style, but his personal story was moving.

He did good........that isn't his strength...but I thought it was a better "speach" than Zero"s........He said more and didn't make an idiot of himself.

I believe him that he means what he says.

Indeed. That was the best part of the speech.

I also feel for him with his awkward physical movements. These of course are beyond his control and due to his wounds in the POW camp.

I agree!

It would be hard to beat Palin's speech anyhow.

Now the race is on. So we will see.

You took the words right out of my mouth, literally!

I was quite moved by him telling his story tonight.

I just finished reading the book..........3 times.....a new record for me.

I admire heros.........not zeros! Yep I am on that one!

I thought it was good start with a great moving ending... with some early problems getting rhythm especially with the obnoxious protesters and projectors. They stated RNC had problems with the speech monitors and it went off a few times the previous night with Palin's speech (wouldn't know it).. so they replaced it before McCain was to go on and the operator couldn't stop (pause it effectively) it during the crowd chats and applause. Thus why he appeared to reread one set for sure.


The ending was really riveting and incredible as he spoke over the crowd with his join the fight chant. Audio fodder for the history books.

No kidding. I kept losing focusing between all the chants from the audience and his delivery.

Listen Folks he did not need to beat Obama's hollywood speech. McCain needed to state the facts honestly and he did so very well. He did just enough and I am all for him.

One love....you are exactly correct my friend. The worst possible thing he could have done was to try to "best" Zero. While I don't see Zero the way the "majority" of the country does.....a brilliant orator"....nor do I see Clinton that way......he is a better liar than McCain.

Great orators.........Ronald Reagan. Winston Churchhill. Dewitt Talmadge.
Spurgeon. These are men who knew the art and the reasoning for oration.

Becoming a good liar like Zero and Clinton just means they have been to some good "sales" schools. I know some vacuum cleaner salesmen who can eat their lunch.

Anyway, John did what he does well. And he is going to win by a landslide.

Obama IS very good at giving a scripted speech. He's not as good at unscripted speaking, such as in debates and interviews. McCain actually does well in debates and especially in town hall meetings.

Dr. Ron,

I really like your optimism, but could you give more than your opinion as to why this will be the results of this election? I truly think this is either going to be a very close election or that Obama will be the one to win huge. Obama has that Clintonesque popularity that put Bill over the top in 1993.

I do hope you're right.

Blessings,
