I heard a no-bullshit lady saying what was on her mind. She didn't sugar coat anything and, yes, she spanked Obama, especially with her "Mayor/community organizer" comparison...

Based on one speech? She didn't win over any new converts or undecides with platitudes straight out of central casting. Even repubs weren't all that enthused

.
To be fair, though, these speeches are nothing more than preaching to the choir. The Dems did the same thing. There's nothing wrong with it, it just is what it is.
And there were plenty of Republicans who were enthused after that speech...

Did you happen to notice the empty seats?
Quite telling, I thought.

Oh, and what were the ratings for that time slot?

How odd.
So, because there are empty seats, it equates to the speaker's message not being a solid one? If ratings are down, it means it was a shitty speech?
What it tells me is that a lot of people didn't hear a damn good speech...

No, she's all that and also under investigation for abuse of power in her home state. It's serious enough that it looks like McCain is attempting to slow down any progress in it.

I've not heard anything like that about McCain. As for her being under investigation, so what? That certainly doesn't negate he viability as a candidate...

When the other side, well-versed in hardball, Chicago politics chooses to bring that to the fore, she's likely done.

When pasts are compared, Obama and Biden are going to get the shit-ed of the stick, primarily due to Obama and his acquaintances.
I hope the idiot left completely dismisses her...
