I just read Barack Obama's speech at the DNC convention. Whoa. I think I love that man, and I haven't even seen the video of it yet.

Ain't he nifty?

You're the third person commenting on Obama's speech today, and most of my lj friends aren't even interested in politics.
If you read it online can I please have the link? I'm dying to hear it myself.

Yes, I'd love to see what he had to say, but have thus far been unable to locate an transcript.

I saw an interview with him on GMA-he's very impressive.

I watched him last night and he moved my mother and I to tears with some of his words and cheers with others.

We're still arguing who we were more impressed with so far, Carter (because he shocked us both) or Obama.

... Just read it. Hey, I'm British and cynical, but this guy had me wanting to wrap myself in a Stars and Stripes and yell stuff about 'Go USA! USA all the way!'

He's good.

See a video if you can manage it. It's not just his words that are good. He's an amazing speaker with a great voice.

I saw it twice (live and rerun), and I was in awe both times. That speech was so damn incredible.
