Prediction

After the McCain speech, the media will say he "hit a homerun" and "knocked it out of the park."

Why? Because that's exactly what they've said after every single other primetime speaker. Every single one.

  • I'm tellin ya. Every single speech.

    I think it's the crowds. I think they lose their brains hearing a partisan crowd cheer.

  • I agree, Mike. I wonder if it's because the play-by-play guys are in the park and they get swept up with the electricity of the excited partisans?

    Whatever the reason, the play-by-play guys cast more shadows than light on these events.
