The audience was just told to take their seats. Restlessness is setting in. Bloggers are wrapping up their cords and laptops and heading out. Everyone is pretty beat. We're going to hang in here. We want to feel the energy and commitment to win in November that the crowd exudes when Hillary and Bill speak.

Someone's rehashing 9-11 again on the podium now. We can't hear many of the speaker's name. For some reason, the big screen monitors are projecting the city of Boston instead of the woman speaking.

Now a 9/11 widow is speaking. Can't we look ahead instead of back? Do they have anything new to say we haven't heard over and over? Yes, we've all grieved with them, but now it's time to look to the future with optimism.

We disagree that everything has changed. That's what Bush wants us to believe. Our children will have innocence again. What a negative speech this is.
