More Dribs About the Drab
DhimmoCraps bravely explore uncharted territory in Pathetic LandAfter a number of his staff briefed him on the water taxi arrival in Boston (Kerry apparently complained that it wasn't a "sexy" boat he'd be traveling on and asked about something a bit more "manly")
Bahstanians who regularly ride this water-taxi, noted girly-men all, will be complimented and heartened to hear that Kerry has their interests at heart.
Kerry did devote his focus to the keynote speech of Illinois senatorial candidate Barack Obama and the weirdness that was his wife's lecture. According to staff that were present in the room, Kerry was enthusiastic about both, cheering by himself and talking to the television as though both Obama and Terry Kerry could hear him. "There was someone in the room actually taking notes of what he said to leak to journalists on the trip."
Now you're just baiting the GOP. ...and us bloggers.
On Wednesday, reporters got laughs after Sen. Patrick Leahy stood befuddled at the podium after the teleprompter went dark. The Vermont senator had no hard copy of his remarks, so a printed version had to be handed to him onstage.
Maybe following Cheny's advice had an effect?
Privately, according to Democratic National Committee staffers, DNC fundraisers and leaders are concerned about the convention, and whether any of it is having a positive effect for the party...."it's just a sense some of us have that this isn't going anywhere, ...there are a lot of us who are shrugging our shoulders and saying, 'Great day, but so what.'"
Astute, ain't they?
By far, the most upbeat moments came with the Obama keynote, but much of that momentum, from the DNC's viewpoint, was killed by the speech of Teresa Heinz Kerry . "Believe me, that was not a speech any of us wanted," [?!?] says the DNC-er. "If people thought Bill and Hillary were a package deal, they have no idea what they are getting with John and Teresa."
"Duck!"
