Kerry Speech

I liked Biden's speech last night, but thought the way he attacked McCain was kind of confusing and could have been a lot more pointed (honestly, the highlight for me was his adorable mother). The "McCain was wrong, and Barack Obama was right" just sounded playground-y to me. Unfortunately for most of the viewers, Kerry's speech was cut away from for punditry, but it is Much Better at outlining the vast differences in Candidate McCain vs Senator McCain (which is also a much more elegant rhetorical device).

Kerry also weighs in on patriotism in language that I think everyone should hear. Here's the speech (only 13 minutes).
