Trust me on this, obamas speech was good and had more substance than usual. He looked large enuff to be prez. McCains job is to bring back the doubt. Running with someone also junior and a two year governor as obama is two year senator might be spun that way if mccains folks are real good. As in "we think young folks should move forward in politics and both sarah and barack need the internship as veep to make them ready." Ooops obama is running for prez, not biden, not hillary. OY VEY.

David, I didn't see all Obama's speech, but it does seem that the firey rhetoric lacking any real substance is starting to wear thin. I watched Obama (I fell asleep during Biden speech). It was no high oratory, parting the seas etc. It was a plain partisan speech with laundry lists of promises and BS. George Will had had an article (before the speech) that summed it up: "If we had some eggs, we could have ham and eggs, if we had some ham." washingtonpost.com Joe
