BigSqwert Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 28, 2008 -> 07:52 PM) it worked so well because he was so intense and nervous-looking, then he unleashes this great line and it was just super effective. Shame the networks didn't cover it. The networks are worthless. It's like watching NFL Gameday with 10 different analysts breaking it down.

HuskyCaucasian Posted August 29, 2008 Author Share Posted August 29, 2008 QUOTE (kapkomet @ Aug 28, 2008 -> 08:50 PM) - Beijing - RSO's revenge... There is a DISTINCT chance there will be more people at this rally then were at the opening ceremonies in Beijing. Also: The colorful Olympics opening night ceremony from Beijing on NBC averaged 34.2 million viewers, making it the biggest television event since the Super Bowl. They might get close to that tonight across all the networks. I guess 28-30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Hmph. Interesting. Quite a bit more about Senator McCain in there than I thought there would be. There were a couple lines in there that actually felt fairly personal, in particular the hit at McCain's questioning his patriotism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of those things he said were responses to attacking points against him. I thought the best one was his "It's not about me, it's about you" line.
