Paladin D Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 [b]What are your thoughts on Barack Obama's DNC speech?[/b] Even though I disagree with Barack Obama's platform in general, I have to admit it was well done and pretty inspiring. Let's just hope the RNC can pull something similar off. One way to win votes is to play on the emotions, and both parties know this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pan!c139 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Agreed. He's a great speaker, very motivating. I have to remind myself at times of the nonsense that he's said. Very charismatic, that's why people are drawn to him, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercy me Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I remember his first speech there when he gave the keynote address 4 years ago and I don't think it was as good. Of course the one 4 years ago was truly great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fidei Defensor Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Beautiful. Differences aside, the speech was inspirational. Don't you just wish he was pro-life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excelsior1027 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 (edited) I remember 4 years ago when he talked about there not being a Republican America and a Democratic America, but the United States of America. For all that, he sure seemed to make it an us against them thing tonight. Oh, and according to Obama, everything that's gone wrong in the past 8 years is the fault of Bush and the Republican Party.
