We watched Kerry give his speech last night. I love speeches. They give me that feeling in my chest that I used to get thinking about Christmas morning from Thanksgiving to Christmas Eve. Sheer, unabashed anticipation. And it's not even as if I think John Kerry is some kind of Messiah. I think he's okay. But not fantastic.
I watched Teresa Heinz Kerry's speech last night on John's computer. Here are a few lines that, really, had nothing to do with the campaign outside of establising a possible First Lady's character:
My right to speak my mind, to have a voice, to be what some have called "opinionated"...
is a right I deeply and profoundly cherish.
And my only hope is that one day soon, My only hope is that, one day soon, women, who have all earned their right to their opinions...
instead of being labeled opinionated will be called smart and well informed, just like men.
So, naturally, I like her.
