Y'all set your expectations low for tomorrow night okay.
You'll get a 6/10 speech which is really 9/10 because my girl is not a speaker, okay? Not her thing.

Ayyyy.
Tangential: is bandwagoning as much of a phenomenon in politics as it is in sports?
Perfect analogy.

I thought Michelle's was historic. I though Bill's was a masterpiece. Obama just relived the best speech I've ever heard in my life.
I want to go vote, right now.

The obvious move is exposing how small Trump is. The smart move is reminding us how much bigger we are.

There was literally nothing in them. Like one of them was like "Is the person at reception?" It's just stupid.
Don't worry, all she has to do is speak some of her sweet policy to me, and I'll be a happy camper.

That was a good speech.
I want to write some kind of long winded rant about love and respect for Barack Obama, but I don't think I can even manage it at the moment.
I am so insanely proud to be a part of this party right now. Happy for the president I fought for 8 years ago, the legacy, and the successor. Even proud of Bernie for stepping into the role I was hoping he'd find eventually.
I knew this convention would be something else. The lineup would be stellar. The stakes have never been higher.
Top to bottom, I underestimated everyone. Michelle, Bernie, Bill, Joe, Barack. Even Tim Kaine and Cory Booker.
With Trump representing so much profound ugliness, and with the divisive primary, I don't think I fully appreciated how much I needed to hear and experience something so positive.
I seriously can't wait to give another $100 to Hills, and ultimately see her become president.
Barack. You are a fucking legend.

Oh I should add one more:
Wikileaks is playing spin the bottle, making out with Putin.
I felt so happy for Hilary when she came out at the end. You could see how much it meant to her. Same for Bill. They kept cutting to him at key moment of the speech, and you could see him crying and laughing. Just a great great night tonight. Still can't get over that speech.

Anderson Cooper is destroying Lord, now.
Lord is such a horrible surrogate.
Axelrod: "I'll take Jeffry off the hook here and change the subject"
LMAO

I've noticed this too. Not only for Hillary but I think they're trying to make a play at the House too.

It is a thing in politics and it is why I don't really buy into "close polling is good because it avoids complacency". I mean, it does, but an approaching blowout discourages the *losing* side more than the winning side. People are less likely to go out and vote for a sure loser than a sure winner.

Jeffrey Lords should just change his name to What Aboutism.
You know, it really does feel nice to be very optimistic again.
Love the avatar lol.

I think it may be Twitter's fault but is he saying that the President that he believes divides us offered us optimism?

He's basically admitting to having to face his assumptions.
Yes, he's a very rabid conservative so he's been slamming Obama for the past 8 years.
Jeffrey Lord is the embodiment of every "other side" expert on TV News. Every time a news program had an expert on to talk about matters of objective fact, like sleep is good for you, they have to roll out some idiot to argue the contrary in order to be "balanced," despite having nothing whatsoever to add to the conversation.

Obviously Obama's speech was brilliant and I cannot say anything even remotely worthy of it....
So I want to talk about my new Adorkable Friend Tim Kaine!
I know this is genuinely his personality, but casting himself as this Oh shucks dad type is perfect. It makes him memorable. Tell me something about Pence. Anything he said. Anything he did on that stage. You can't. Because there was absolutely nothing.
With Kaine's speech we get a sense of who he is. He made fun of himself. He made fun of Trump. He shared his story. And it was exactly what he needed to be.
He was a man grown in a dish somewhere meant to be VP.

To be fair, he's clearly become self aware about it, unlike whats-her-name and that guy who used to work as SC's Lt Govenor.

The cons to watching MSNBC far outweigh the positives right now.

You do not need to watch MSNBC right now.
SECONDS after Obama's speech, they're scouring the floor for a Bernie or Buster. Seriously.

I really hope obama is put on the supreme court. I would love to see the GOP shit themselves.
I was 18 when he entered office. I'll be 26 when he leaves. Certainly left a bigger and better mark than the president I grew up with (Dubya).
On what planet does that House Republican live on that makes him think Trump is capable of a speech like that? Or does he mean from George W Bush? Cause he wasn't available for some strange reason.

Michelle would not allow it I am sure.
Just remember the trade off. Bomb ass legal opinions from B Rock or more of these dank speeches from a politically active supervisor for decades to come.
