That's about what this boils down to, all of the hype prior to the World Cup, every 4 years we go through the pagentry and pandering.  The really sad part is that there will probably be more votes cast in this past season of American Idol, than there will be in the Presidential election.

"Come Together" by the Beatles when Senator Pelosi came on stage to speak! That's my Senator rising up old Timothy Leary campaign music. He was arrested soon afterward.
Wow - First elevator Muzak Beatles, then Cirque du Soleil Beatles; now politician walk on Beatles!
I AM F---ing OLD~!
 
How about a prize for anyone who predicts what music President Clinton will have for his walk on?

You should have put a link on that - GREAT selection, but lost to most.

A lot of symbolic gestures which I'm sure will be repeated on the RNC stage when they nominate McBush.
Difference for me is Obama is my choice. 
Highlights so far, for me: listening to Dennis Kucinich (who would have been my ideal Presidential candidate), seeing Ted Kennedy speak, Michelle Obama and the kids, and watching the nomination of Obama by Michael Wilson, a lifelong R and Iraqui vet.
Roll call upcoming.

Without a doubt if we stick to the Beatles theme Senator Obama's theme song:
Taxman!

He and his administration haven't become that much of a pariah to the party yet?) Somehow, I'm betting that Bill's speech will have a few things that Bush's speech won't:

Complete sentances.
Properly pronounced words
Paragraphacal structure to his thoughts.
A theme.

In a word, it'll be "literate."

And a goal as well.

This was just the preface to the story.  I can't wait to watch and read the ending of it.

It was a magical moment, and I am glad I witnessed it.   I probably should have watched the MSNBC coverage, as it would have added to the experience.  I enjoy their balanced and unbiased reporting, it is very educational.

What's up with only 10 minutes for President Clinton? How about this O'Jay's song for him? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MmJI036k-M&feature=related
