Gore was a bit disappointing
I expected much more from Mr. Gore. Hemore than anyone can lay out the case against another republican term. He definitely had an opportunity for an “I was right and they were wrong” moment and completely flubbed it. Mass gatherings were never his strong points. Maybe he should’ve spoke in the Pepsi Center on another night. Gore in an intimate setting can really be inspiring and powerful. Ex., his father’s eulogy.
I still think the Democrats have missed an opportunity to go after Bush vis a vis his 2000 acceptance speech–”They haven’t lead; we will.” Obama cannot hit on it; it wouldn’t seem authentic from this platform and his mouth. Gore or Biden should have delivered the message more effectively in this regard.
[edit: Gore borrowed Bill Clinton's powder blue tie from Joe Biden.]
