Tri-Ciceros

If we have to give out medals, then McCain I guess has to get a bronze. Wow, that was some powerfully bad strategizing -- as I said at Eschaton last night:

"Oh, Go with the Green Background"

"It'll make you look like the cottage cheese in a lime jello salad" Always a good look for an older gentlemen.

The aesthetics of McCain's speech, just mercifully completed before a slightly energized crowd of literally dozens, was awesome in how dreadful it was. No matter what Harold Ford thinks, who was somehow thoroughly moved by lime-jello McCain.

As for Clinton, good speech, combative - too much so, could have added a couple more complimentary lines. But the hyperventilation some people had is over-the-top. It can be critiqued, but let's get a grip.

Obama is simply a masterful public speaker and the comparison between him and McCain is striking -- although let's face it by the time he spoke nobody remembered the old man yelling at the cloud before one of those CGI walls he borrowed from LucasFilms.

...OH MY GOD...McCain is pretty much an old Jar Jar Binks.

Speaking of CGI McCain, Jesus General, "at long last have you no sense of decency?"
