After wading through the muck, piles of trash, and the nearly comatose bodies of stoners and drunkards left strewn about the streets, I think I have the bottom line from the Democrats about their feelings after the DNC convention ended. - and it can be summed up in once sentence;
"Why can't Bill Clinton be running instead ?"
Big Dawg and his overdrawn speech EASILY trumped everybody else at the convention, so much so that it made Obama's seem like a cup of weak herbal tea. Sure, it was packed with lies and distortions, but that doesn't matter. What does matter is that he managed to make Democrats feel good about being Democrats, and then Obama came across as a consolation prize- looking at all of the left's talking heads (Save for Blitzer and a couple of others), they all realized what they managed to screw themselves out of by backing Obama over Hillary.
In the end, I suspect there will be minimal bounce, if any at all. Honestly, they may end up losing support as Democrats realize that the days of Clinton are gone. - That by falling into the trap Obama set four years ago (Vote for me, else be labeled racist), they cheated themselves out of more Clinton governance. And that Speech by Bill Clinton is a close as they will ever get to having one in the White House again.
Too bad, primitives.
