Bill Clinton simply rocked the house

What an excellent orator. He hit on every subject that needed attention in this election, with clarity, a sense of humor, and seriousness. His approach, speaking in laymen's terms, made is easy for everyone to understand the issues, and the answers. He hit the republicans with their lies, over and over, without the hatred currently coming form the right. The facts are the facts. I was quite pleased with his presence and how he kept the audience riveted. The man hit a grand slam to win the game. It's good to be the home team!!! And what a difference between the RNC and the DNC. There's no comparison. I'd say "team Rmoney" is in deep doo doo after viewing the last two nights. I can see the big grin on the Koch brothers face now. Money doesn't buy votes. An actual vision, without lies deceitfulness and hatred, for all Americans does.

The show is over folks. I'm just waiting for the closing remarks tonight, which should be spectacular.

Excellent job Bill. We're all very, very, proud of you!!!!

but it's going to be hard to top last night's "ARITHMETIC!"

I took time out from my fave Bogart movies last night to watch Big Dog work the crowd. I'll be watching Obama tonight.

Every bit of it was spot on. He took the RNC to the wood shed with nary a foul word. The fact checkers haven't found much in the way of stretching the facts. I'll never forget the math lesson! Thank you President Clinton, thank you! On fire on the inside and cool on the outside that is Barack Obama!
