John Kerry's speech.
Direct attacks on Bush's foreign policy, fiscal policy, John Ashcroft and the Saudi Royal Family.
I'd have to say he hit on all the points he wanted to hit. MSNBC (one of the propaganda arms of the Bush administration) were bitching that he had to rush through his speech to "prevent the networks from cutting away from him". Yeah, right... I noticed he would pause and wait for his audience to settle before going on to the next point. His speech was anything but rushed and the networks would stay with this speech until it was over and their 'talking heads' could decide whether they liked it or not.
I think that Kerry has done what he needed tonight. Now he has to get on the campaign trail and not let up until November.
