Read the speech below the fold
To Chairman Dean and my great friend Dick Durbin; and to all my fellow citizens of this great nation;
With profound gratitude and great humility, I accept your nomination for the presidency of the United States.
Let me express my thanks to the historic slate of candidates [...]
Brilliant.
[...]You can’t stop the 24/7 fellatio-gasm over McCain’s time as a POW and yet, when a couple of dozen FLAG RANK MILITARY OFFICERS hit the national stage to say why Obama is a better pick than McCain, you assholes decide to pull away and have a little chat?
I love Sheryl [...]
Barack Obama: To Chairman Dean and my great friend Dick Durbin; and to all my fellow citizens of this great nation.
With profound gratitude and great humility, I accept your nomination for the presidency of the United States.
Let me express my thanks to the historic slate of candidates who accompanied me [...]
Okay that was . . . amazing.
This was the Obama we have been waiting for - the visionary, the leader, the American son calling us to our highest selves but not pulling any punches, not shying away from the fight.
I’m not thinking JFK tonight. I’m thinking FDR - [...]
Foreign policy part of the speech.
” . . . John McCain likes to say he’ll follow Bin Laden to the gates of hell but he won’t even follow him to the cave where he lives.”
He’s calling out John McCain.
“We are the party of Roosevelt. We are the party of kennedy. [...]

[...]We’re in the wonky part of the speech - it’s all taxes and tax cuts and tax changes and policy proposals.
10 year goal to end dependence on oil from the Middle East. Interesting, this is lifted almost entirely from the stump speech.
“Now is not the time for small [...]
It’s really crowded and loud here. Obama’s speech is making me smile, even if I can’t see him anymore. Stupid network camera pits. At least I got a flag.
Okay, yeah, totally schmaltzy video but it’s part of the politics.
U2 - of course. From How to Dismantle - the City of Shining Lights, IIRC.
Can you just imagine what it is like in that stadium right now?
Americablog has the text of the speech but I’m going to control myself [...]
You should have seen it live! I hear it was cool as hell, but, I was stuck out in the line that apparently went all the way to Kansas.
[...]Some say that Barack Obama is too smart to win the presidency. Well, we’ve tried stupid for eight years. Maybe it’s time to try intelligence.

[...]Obama as the new Lincoln - it’s a powerful metaphor. Gore laid it out - wrong-headed war that was initially popular, naked aggression against another nation, then fading popularity and one man knowing it was wrong from the start. The shared Illinois experience - the strength of character, the unique [...]
Watching Al Gore speak tonight from Invesco Field is a strange, bittersweet experience. He’s giving a great speech. And it’s impossible not to think: What could have been if only . . .?
How much better off would we be today if only . . . If only . . .

Today, the Sutherland Institute released a report taking a look at illegal immigrants in Utah as they compare to typical adult citizens in the state. The study specifically looks at the family structure of both groups and things such as work ethics, income, [...]
Rich Piatt narrated an adorable, yet quite shallow, profile of … well, I guess pictures that prove that there are bloggers out here in Denver and, unlike most places in politics, we’re not being chased off with sticks.

I’ve seen will.i.am a few times at the hotel but I didn’t know he was staying two doors down from our room. When I stepped out of the elevator today will.i.am was sitting in a chair, I said, “hi”, and he got up out of his chair and gave [...]
Hidden deep within the bowels of the Pepsi Center is a giant room full of independant media members, stacked at long tables and surrounded by an army of giant flat screen TV’s with high speed internet connections and free flowing, if state, air.
In a closet off of this room is [...]
