Gee, could it be that even DUmmies see the writing on the wall?
I'm looking forward to next week, to gauge the buzz at the DNC, compare the rhetoric and tone of the speeches that Biden/Obama give versus those of Paul/Romney.
And I'm guessing that there won't be nearly as much post-convention bounce for them as there will be for the GOP.
