Comments
All Obama has to do to solidify my vote is get through his convention speech without using the phrases “My Friends” or “five and a half years in a POW camp” more than 20 times. America is getting tired of the McCain sentence construction that goes something like this: “My friends, noun, verb, five and half years of captivity.” Being a war hero and having leadership skills are two different things.
Republicans are giving Obama grief for building a “Greek temple” backdrop for his acceptance speech at Invesco Field. McCain intends to counter by doing his entire convention from a North Vietnamese “tiger cage.”
I know what you mean Steve, It’s like the way Rudy Giuliani used to use 9/11 in every sentence when he was campaigning. It’s not enough to get him elected.
And couldn’t anyone figure out that the backdrop to his acceptance speech was an old set from “The West Wing”?? It was the walkway outside the oval office! DUH!
