Live Blogging: Michelle Obama


Great introductory video.  Really touching.

And her brother is great.  They should use him more.

Michelle is out-smokin’ Caroline Kennedy.  Looks really good.

Use of the images of veterans’ families really well done.

Mentioned Hillary — 18 million cracks in the glass ceiling.  Very nice touch.

“That’s why I’m proud of my country.”  Excellent — take on the attacks head on.

She is really, really good.  Best speaker of the night. In fact, this is exactly what the Dems needed.  This could be to ‘08 what Barack’s speech was to ‘04.

People in the audience are tearing up.  Wow.

A truly great speech.  Michelle is now a force in her own right.

Yes, it’s clear.  I didn’t just drink the Kool-Aid.  I’ve opened a neighborhood stand.

    I am guzzling the same Kool-Aid. That was simply fantastic. And the post speech chat with Barack was actually better with the little reality check from the girls.

    Michelle’s shout out to Hill was priceless. The sweet smell of party unity is in the air.

    After Michelle’s speech, it has become almost unbearable to consider any alternative to Obama as President.

    I don’t know how I’m going to make through the next few months of pundit trash talk and attempts to scare us that he’s unelectable.

    I think I’m getting a sugar rush from all the Kool-Aid.
