| I read the speech and was left with mostly the same impression I was after reading Obama's (same old same old) with a couple of exceptions.
 First, I believe he recognizes the utter failings of the republican party.  He called out the republican led congress and (indirectly) Bush for spending and expanding government.  As a disgruntled republican, that was my favorite part of the speech.  Gave me reason to think I could support republicans in general again.
 
 Lastly, I was genuinely moved by the latter part of his speech when he was talking about his experience as a POW and how it changed him.  I thought that was brilliantly written and I may need to watch his delivery of that portion at least.
 
 I'm starting to think I could vote for McCain without having to hold my nose while doing it.  However, my level of trust with him is very, very low still.
