All's well in Denver

No one can accuse the Democrats of not having their act together. They are putting on a first-class convention, one which confronts head-on some of the criticisms the party faces. (But please, enough mentions of Scranton, Pennsylvania, OK?)

Note the pro-military video last night directed by Spielberg with Tom Hanks narrating. There also appear to be a significant number of ex-military people at the convention. Several have sprouted up on TV commenting from Denver.

Hillary Clinton performed admirably on Tuesday evening, despite the mixed reviews. She did what she needed to do and the message was clear. Bill Clinton was in fine form last night, but ex-Virginia Gov. Mark Warner was a bore. He was boring, clichéd, and wooden. As for Michelle Obama, she has impressed me more than anyone. What presence! She certainly knows how to give an interview.

Tonight's speech by Barack Obama better not disappoint, because the expectations are high and the event has been flawless so far.
