    Nice article

    a day late and a dollar short, as usual lately, but good nonetheless.

    And notice that this one only gets about 12 letters while the sensationalist egging everyone to fight article got almost a 100 so far.

    And also notice that the 12 are, at least so far, mostly the same bitter, right wing, racists, and everything in between downplaying anything positive about this incredible speech, and incredible historic evening.

    Hey they're out there, progressive blogs like Daily Kos get more comments in about five minutes than you could dream of in an evening. You've just lost that crowd. Except for a few who stick around here as scolds.
