I saw the kiss from a different TV angle and it was just a kiss on the cheek.

But Michelle looked HOTNESS!

She's going to rock tonite!

I saw that last night, and then I thought I saw Barack saw something like, "i tried to kiss you on the cheek." Way to kiss the veep's hot wife, dude.

Bill gets props for bringing up Katrina, which I'm shocked that more speakers haven't mentioned.

Argh! I would say that one of the highlights from last night was when THOUSANDS of people (including myself) marched over 4 miles through downtown Denver and successfully hand delivered a message of peace from Iraq Veterans Against the War to Obama's campaign at the convention.

I would expect this to be ignored by the mainstream media. But I would think The Stranger, the best alternative weekly in America, would have considered the largest, most peaceful and successful anti-war demonstration of the convention to be at least as big of a highlight as Joe Biden's AWFUL and AWFULLY BORING speech, or the Democrats' shameful slighting of Jimmy Carter in favor of the Bill Clinton love-fest.

Husband and I both noticed what looked like a liplock between Jill Biden and Barack Obama. I like the bad camera angle or she turned her head theory.

I think it's Invesco Field at Mile High Stadium. I think.

We're breaking out the bubbly to watch Mr. Obama tonight. Sweet.

Shawn Johnson was created in a lab to be the cutest thing on earth. The only thing cuter would be if she was holding a hat-wearing kitty while saying the pledge.

I have been watching CSPAN for the convention coverage. The reason is that Fox News got the coverage for all the networks on this convention and the other networks have to feed off of Fox's floor cameras. (CSPAN has their own cameras for the convention) And you can tell by the cut away's to the audience. See the yawns, frowns etc that they are trying to capture? Nice and subtle.

I firmly believe Jill misturned her head, and given the awkward upper chin kiss he was presented with, Obama just adjusted and did a little lip-lock.

That was my instant reaction, forged further by what my feeble lip-reading abilities picked up to be Barack telling Joe, "I just kissed your wife" with a slightly incredulous smile on his face.

I wonder if Clinton and Biden wore matching blue ties on purpose.
