I had high hopes for Michelle Obama's speech going in, and yet I did not think she was capable of hitting it as far out she did. It was truly the most impressive speech I have ever seen by a candidate's spouse. The pefect mix of sentimentality and substance, she defined hers and her husband's character magnificently. It's amazing how someone who is not a professional politician, and not at all accustomed to the big crowds can do so well. Seriously, she made Nancy Pelosi look like crap.
I believe the elitist smear is officially put to bed, and the other exotic and foreign smears that McCain's camp were going to try are officially DOA.
ANd people, please ignore Maureen crackpot. She's an idiot, a blowhard, possibly a drunk, and I suspect not really Irish.
