From McCain himself...

So far -- and it's only been a few minutes -- he's actually said something nice about Obama and his supporters.

However, he then went on to say -- after he was interrupted by a demonstrator -- that the American people just want us to stop yelling at each other. Um... did he listen to her speech last night? How was that not an example of yelling at each other.

How on Earth can McCain stand up there and talk about the "me first, do nothing crowd" in reference to Congress when he is part of the do nothing crowd?! Though the RNC is trying to sell a different line, the Republicans are the ones who have introduced a record number of filibusters in the last two years. Yes, the Republicans, not the Democrats.

And again, he's talking about being the man of change. Really. This from a man who has proudly stated that he's voted with GWBush 90% of the time; more, he said, than any of his colleagues. How, I ask you, is that a candidate for change?

Now he's talking about pork barrel spending, and last night Palin was eager and proud to point out that she said no to the bridge to nowhere. However, she failed to mention that she started out for that bridge. She also failed to mention that though she turned down the bridge, she still took the money.

Who knows how he'll continue this speech, but so far he is doing a better job of talking about himself rather than punching the opponents.

Now he's taking credit for the "victory" in Iraq. Saying that to have given up and left before we achieved victory would have led to a wider war. Correct me if I'm wrong, please, but did I not read today that US troops are in Pakistan? And I'm certain they're not there for a rousing game of Uno.
