DNC

So I watched it last night, on C-Span so as to see the speakers rather than network talking heads.  The dems put on a vast array of speakers,  most of them people I never heard of.  They all spoke with great enthusiasm.  Lot of talk about things in the past, some talk about things I didn't quite believe, such as Obama is responsible for the GI bill.  Some women talked long and passionately about the need for free birth control.  Some called for tax hikes. 
  Last speaker at ten o'clock was Michelle Obama.  She spoke well and at length about her husband's marvelous qualities and sterling work ethic. 
   Little talk about jobs, the economy, tax reform, oil exploration, Keystone XL, or the Federal debt.
   Somehow the atmosphere at the DNC wasn't as lively as it was last week at the RNC.
