I think it's wise. If he was there for the duration it would just be that much more reason for the GOP to screech about Celebrity and Cult Of Personality and all that garbage.<BR/><BR/>I disagree that nothing substantial was accomplished tonight just because it wasn't a slugfest directed toward McCain. I think the Ted Kennedy tribute set the mood in that it and his subsequent speech helped the party recapture the tone from the JFK era, that sense of boundless possibility that is less quixotic than it is *committed*. And Michelle's speech capitalized on it by personalizing that story - the "obligation to make the dream real" - and linking it to Obama in a very direct and human sense.<BR/><BR/>The overture sets the story arc without telling the whole story. Tonight was the overture.<BR/><BR/>Act I tomorrow evening should be a stunner.</I>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
