JK: O's acceptance speech knocked me to my knees. I thought it was amazing how he delivered it so well. A tad too MLKish for my tastes, but he sure sold it with erudition and fluency and I don't think he looked at a cue card once. Very polished! It'll be nice to have a POTUS who can actually speak, although, my fear is that he a tendency to drift into the cadence of Cornel West or Jesse Jackson. The "Yes We Can" refrain was a bit much in the end, but at only 17:30, it was clear, concise and uplifting. It should be an interesting 4 years. p ------------------------------------------------------------------ To change your Lit-Ideas settings (subscribe/unsub, vacation on/off, digest on/off), visit www.andreas.com/faq-lit-ideas.html
