There were parts of this where I was almost holding my breath and was on the edge of my seat. But that's just me :-)

1. FINALLY we get the video!

Well, hopefully better late than never. I only saw part of it on TV, so now I'm going to sit back and watch the whole thing.

2. I was more enthralled watching it again than I was watching it live. On the edge of

my seat and holding my breath. God. He wasn't just giving the old stump speech - he was INTIMATELY talking to a crowd of 9,000 people! What an exceptional man.

4. I wonder how many people got the "Chicago" joke

I thought it was funny and certainly appropriate.

5. I had to have it explained to me, but when it was, I thought - GOOD one, Joe!

VERY funny and just snarky enough not to offend! :7

6. I didn't get it at first either.

He said so much with so few words.

3. "The American people are waiting for a president they can trust"

Amen... :kick:

7. BIDEN OBAMA 2008

I watched this speech and the other speeches from the JJ dinner last night.

They have the full 4 hours of video with sound at www.CSPAN.com

It's good to see that this speech is now also available at YouTube.

I am certain that Biden would destroy the GOP candidate in any debate.

That's why my dream ticket for 2008 is BIDEN - OBAMA B-)

:kick:

8. thanks for sharing

I just really like listening to him. Someone who doesn't have any trouble stringing words together in a sentence!

9. Make Hope and History Rhyme

....I couldn't have put it better myself....

We cannot let this opportunity slip by us.

10. You watch him and wonder why others don't see the magic

He has all the qualifications for president along with a sense of humor, not hateful humor. We have had a hateful president for 7 miserable years. It would be what America needs to have a world leader that understands the happenings around the world and a plan to get things settled down. It would be nice to have our troops home, and start taking care of the needs here. I believe he would spend more time working on issues and not the politics of the next election.
