AUGUST 29 ,2008 9AM

9 am, many thoughts and no content. My sage comments will have to wait until later today or tomorrow. However I can never fail to be impressed how the Dems always overwhelm the GOPs in staging their pageantry, aka convention. An outdoor setting with an ersatz Greek forum backdrop.

And the Gods smiled down from Olympus to have this day fall on the 45th anniversary of MLK's dream. Yes August 28, 2008 would have been unbelievable in 1963.

Obama is a smooth orator, belongs on a Greek Bema. All candidate's acceptance speeches are full of promises and everything to every body. The nitty gritty will come when the substance emerges via party platform and selection of policy makers. One thing is certain, no President's agenda can be carried out without a compliant congress. Party majority does not automatically mean the ability to deliver on promises. Every congressional member has his own agenda and it is based on retaining his seat.

Later on today McCain will unveil his VP choice. Romney will be one more Obama vote for many.
