Typical liberal... The token republican entry only made it because it was delivered by a woman.

None of these speeches were any good. The last good convention speech was given by Reagan in 64.

Coincidently, the last good inaugural speech was given by him on 1981. ...Prior to that one would have to look back to Kennedy to find a good one.
