Politics is everywhere and living in Pennsylvania, I'm in the middle of it more than ever. The Democratic National Convention, which took place from Monday through Thursday was packed with some truly great speeches. I thought the best of the best were...
Monday
And let me say that Alexandra Kerry's got one nice body.
When John Kerry is elected to be our next President, he'll be the second non-WASP to be elected to the Presidency and Teresa will be the first African-American First Lady [she was born in Mozambique and is also Portugese by blood].
I've never given any money whatsoever to a political campaign before, but I really wanted to give to this one. It is very important to me. Thursday was the last day to give directly to the Kerry campaign and it was also payday. I was supposed to receive my bonus and a commission from my new promotion, but I did not receive either because of some clerical errors. So, after bills, I'd only have, maybe $30, for the next 2 weeks or so. So, I sucked it up and used my credit card to give $10 to the fight, Lady added another $20. At this point, you can't give directly to the Kerry campaign, but you can still support organizations like MoveOn.org, the Democratic Party, GLEAC which will help pay legal fees if there is another fiasco like Florida in 2000 and many more that I can't think of off the top of my head.
Give what you can, $5, $10, or more if you can spare it, it all helps. I've been going to Meetups just about every week, but I gotta do more. I'm going to help out at voter registration drives and maybe man the phones at a phone bank. Whatever I can do to help. AK, living out in Chitown, took it upon himself to drive to Iowa during the caucuses. We can all do things like this. We can get Kerry-Edwards into office and get Dubya and his band of cronies out.

Monday
- Bill Clinton's - has he ever given a bad speech?
- Jimmy Carter's - this elder statesman of the Democratic Party came out swinging tonight.
- Barack Obama - this speech was my personal favorite. It's just sooo good and on point.
- Teresa Heinz Kerry - this lady is 65 years old and slammin.
- Rev. Al Sharpton - this speech was his greatest to date and spoke to everyone.
- John Edwards - he's really got that trial lawyer closing argument thang down.
- John Kerry - his best speech to date. Yes, he is stiff at first, but after he got warmed up, he really go going and actually opened up and showed his emotion, FINALLY.
