So what did you think of the presentations last night?
I'd give the president an A- for presentation and an B+ for substance. He deftly rubbed a thumb in the eye of a number of critics last night - I enjoyed that.
I'd give Kaine a B- with a gold star for audacity. I actually liked some of what he said, particularly the part about "moving ahead by focusing on service, competent management and results." Who can argue with that?
His opening remarks were rather disingenuous though...
"I worked as a missionary in Honduras when I was a young man and I learned to measure my life by the difference I can make in someone else’s life. Coretta Scott King embodied that value and tonight, as a nation, we mourn her passing. Our faith and values teach us that there is no higher calling than serving others."
Puhleeeeeease. No knock on Kaine, but the Democratic party would be hard pressed to show they 'embody' those values. The only time "faith and values" come into play is when it's to their political advantage. How did their shameless behavior in the Alito hearings and debate show the importance of serving others? You want to serve? Sit in front of us for a few days while we run you through the shredder.
The democrats in the chamber get an A+ for chutzpah. Giving themselves a standing ovation - need I say more?
