Anyone else see and have the same effect as I? Or was it different?

Strappie I'm with you. I was so moved I cried. He has my vote! Thanks for the thread you rock

I am not American either and I have to say that our culture here in Canada is to not really respect American politics. But I have recently been paying attention to your politics and last night I watched Michelle Obama's speech and really was moved by what she had to say. I in turn watched most (got bored) or Ann Romney's and she definitely did not have the same affect.

There is no perfect politician, I think like everything, that everyone will have their own perceptions about any one person and what they say. But, I am quite impressed my Barrack Obama and his wife Michelle. He was put in a very difficult position after Bush led the country into the economic abyss, and I personally think he has done remarkably well considering. But again, this is me looking from the outside in.

But, Michelle rocked it.

And... I watched Clint Eastwood's speech, I think he agreed to do it to help the Democrats because he made the Republicans look even stupider in my opinion.
