Democratic Convention

Been watching the DNC, and was eagerly awaiting Howard Dean's speech. It was a good speech, but not really overwhelming. I thought he would be a bit more "upset" like he was during the campaign, but Kerry must have reined him in somehow.
Also saw Ted Kennedy, who I thought started off slow but then got the people behind him at the end. Also, Teresa Heinz Kerry, who was really impressive and will be a fantastic First Lady.
However, the star of the evening was Baraka Obama, who knocked one out of the park. He had everyone on their feet, and I was riveted. Very empassioned, enthusiastic. I would watch it again if I could.
