Big speech tomorrow...

12. Agree completely - a masterful speech that actually made some of the complicated issues clear

Lugar's introduction was wonderful and obviously sincere. His affection for the man he was on the SFRC with for 28 years was very obvious. It made me remember his kind words praising Kerry's first debate on foreign policy - which he said made the SFRC proud - when Kerry returned after Bush stole the vote in Ohio.

Seeing this, I wonder if there was a clear time when America could not see a diamond in the midst of so many cubic zirconium. This speech showed who he is - and he is a very exceptional person - as is the President who was brave enough to back this effort, fully knowing the political firestorm that would come if, against the odds, they succeeded.

Lugar did look great - and he still has that same genial smile. Kerry looked like he actually got some rest in the last few weeks -- and it looks like he no longer needs a cane (unless I missed something)

This could be an awesome month for Kerry - beyond Congress failing to stop the deal-- when the UN meets and when the Pope comes to DC.
