Thoughts on opening night of DNC...


Some quick thoughts on this evening first night of the Democratic National Convention...

*Lily Ledbetter, Duval Patrick and Michelle Obama each nailed their speeches. Absolutely...

*Rahm Emanuel, Cory Booker and Julian Castro were ok, nothing exceptional...

*Safe to say, the audience make-up sure looks different than it did at the RC last week...

*If there was any question would the Party try to run away from "Obamacare," none remains. No excuses, they're holding it up as a strength, not a weakness...

*I'm not sure what was gained by the Democratic National Committee by removing any mention of the word "God" in the party platform. Intellectually I'm fine with it, but the optics are bad on this one...

*Mrs. Obama's speech was every bit as good as Mrs. Romney's...Both were very, very well done and both will be virtually meaningless on Election Day...

*Tonight was Ladies Night at the DNC...

*Castro had a great line: "You can't be pro-business unless you're pro-education."

*Plenty of mentions / praise for Military tonight...
