The Democrats' big night

Thursday night for the Democrats culminated in President Obama's speech, and I'm sure he disappointed no one who was hoping he'd give a great speech. And I would think that if a person was on the fence and not sure who to vote for, the President set up the choices in stark contrast to each other. While some (almost every GOP politician) will complain that there wasn't specifics in the speech, it did outline President Obama's thoughts on an agenda for a second administration. And when you're the incumbent, details of where you want to go in the future is easier to see than a challenger, who has to explain their plans for the future. And in one of the best parts of the speech, he showed exactly the flaw in the GOP's future budget plans--No matter what the situation, the GOP says a tax cut is needed (Take 2 tax cuts and call me in the morning was a great line). And the President saying that it is our future, that we're fighting for change for us, making voting this November a point of personal pride for people, was truly brilliant. In almost every way, it was a sensational ending to a great convention.
