“Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values… that your word is your bond that you do what you say you’re gonna do…”
-Michelle Obama, in a speech at the Democratic Convention, apparently forgetting about public financing
I just watched her speech and it was rather cringe-inducing at many points and for myriad reasons. Go watch the whole thing and draw your own conclusions and let me know in the comments what you think.
Update: Wow! Dennis Kucinich knows how to give a speech! I disagreed with much (actually pretty much of all) of what he said, but at the end (and throughout) I felt like getting up a joining the standing ovation! I particularly like his (unoriginal) turn of phrase “neo-con artists”.
