It made me proud to be a Bush supporter. It really showed the differences between "Me and my opponent".

Yeah, I gotta say, I was impressed. I originally supported Kerry because I felt that post-9/11 Bush had moved the Republican party away from real conservative/libertarianism. But Bush does make a good case for himself. Kerry talks about Bush alienating the US allies while calling them the "coaltion of the coerced and bribed". If Bush follows through on what he said in his speech (other than on abortion and gay marriage) he has my support (or would if I were American). I agree with him on education, social security, and spending cuts and tax cuts (although this term I hope he actually does the former, rather than just the latter leading the US further into debt). I am suspicious of his health care/drug plans because it doesn't sound like the US will have an easy time cutting spending with all the initiatives planned. But its better than Kerry's plans.

I felt the speech was incredible!

He said things he has been needing to say for a year now, he listed off the coalition of nations involved in Iraq. Almost smacking Kerry and the Dems in the process.

Honestly I feel it was almost Reaganesque. Just flat out made you proud to be American and hopeful about our future. Exactly what the president needs to do for us.

His social agenda was comprehensive, maybe a bit grandiose but possible.

I feel that Bush firmly has the high ground now and Kerry has played basically his full deck of cards. I dont know what he can do now.

Can you believe how John Kerry came out the same night, not even honoring the fact that Bush waited till the following day to go on the attack after Kerry's DNC speech. Not only that, he claimed he was "unfit to lead" this nation???

What???

I think even Kerry has joined the "I don't like John Kerry, I just hate George Bush" groupies.
