She was stellar. Beautiful, rocking this severe yet feminine outfit, and giving a great speech.

But for some bizarre reason the chant was not “we’re not going back” instead pushing out a “do something” chant.

It was like going to concert of a favored band, waiting for them to play their #1 hit, and they never did. “Do something” isn’t a good chant. It’s like a song not even good enough for the B side.

Idk who planned that but “we’re not going back” is a heavy hitter. They should use it more not less.

(Context for young people unfamiliar with the record era. Hit music singles used to be sold on single records. The hit song was on the A side. B side was some random stuff from the main record not good enough to be released on its own, for radio.)

Again though, Michelle was fantastic. After her even Barak didn’t hit as hard as usual.

I dunno, his line about crowd sizes, and the associated hand gesture, was the best highlight of the night

They’re deliberately pushing his buttons so he’ll just rave like the lunatic he is.

Yeah they're awesome at it. I could watch Obama's size joke on a loop.

Lol he even said that himself at the beginning of his speech
