He was really assuring, even took swipes at Cheney. Hopefully he continues to impress.

3. He said exactly what i wanted to hear.
No excuses just plans to do better. We shouldnt be defending failure. Instead we need to set the bar higher

I did see a lot of attacks on President Obama and that was defended.

7. He's pro-tor - oops, I mean, "enhanced interrogation techniques"
Him calling out Cheney is the pot calling the kettle black.

Would like to see them annihilate each other.
