Wednesday's DNC - DOA

Could they possibly have put together a less inspiring show? They're supposed to be building up towards tonight. Instead, Wednesday saw a huge drop from the relatively good show on Tuesday. Of course, you can't aim too high if you expect Frankenkerry to actually appear as the star. Talk about listless. It was as if Teresa Heinz Kerry had spoken all night. We had Jesse Jackson, the self parody. And then of course there was Edwards. I'm sorry, I just don't see what everyone sees in him. I think he's just as monotone as Frankenkerry, he just hits a different tone. I guess he's endearing to a lot of people though, he sure made a lot of money chasing ambulances. He's about as energetic as Cheney during a heart attack. Scratch that, Cheney would probably win that contest too. Sharpton was the only highlight and that's only because he apparently didn't get the "be nice to Bush" memo circulating around the convention. His best line? "Our [black] vote is not for sale!" to the cheering crowd. You're right, it's not for sale. You sold it so long ago that you can't even remember. And the party you sold it to has sold you down the river without a paddle and you keep lauding them as your saviors. Yeah, Rev. Sharpton...You really got the good end of the deal. Wink Wink Nudge Nudge. We can only hope that perhaps Frankenkerry will be hit with another lightening bolt and maybe it'll bring him to life a little more completely. Otherwise, get ready to hear a lot of quiet snoring tonight.
