We have heard probably some of the most phenomenal speeches ever delivered during this convention – the combination of the pen, paper and minds – with goals from humanizing Barack Obama, taking back the White House, how John McCain and George Bush were “twins” (twin cities) – sound bites like “power of our examples not example of our power” – “18 million cracks in the glass ceiling” – “living the dream” – yet still these are all just a prelude of what is yet to come later on tonight when Senator Barack Obama accepts the Democratic Nomination from his party.
It would seem that the speeches done by candidates should convey more about themselves and what they personally think than what is pleasing to hear or what is “politically correct” to say to the public. Politicians are graded more on how they say it, than what they say…but to an extent, when politicians say something that is considered incorrect they become “meat” and truly victims of media scavengers and other media “birds of prey” looking for a juicy story.
Let’s face it…the public loves to hear about someone falling from grace…right????
