On Obama’s Acceptance Speech

You know, while there may be many reasons one is not comfortable with Obama as a potential President….you gotta admit that the guy can give a good speech.

I especially appreciate the passages of his speech which called for personal responsibility in affecting change, his reminding Democrats that they share some of the responsibility for the nastily polarized political culture in Washington, and his acknowledgement that more than a few of us are rather cynical towards politicians because of empty promises delivered in the past.

It was a darned fine speech.

Sadly, it didn’t overcome my cynicism of what havoc could be wreaked by a Dem in the Oval Office and Dems in power on Capitol Hill….but it did come pretty darned close.

It’ll be interesting to see how the GOP responds next week.
