In a night that was supposed to celebrate women and their achievements, why so many male speakers? Why did we get the bland white-toast Mark Warner and the anti-choice Bob Casey.

Any resentments should be gone by tonight -- Hillary already rejected efforts by some renegade supporters not to get behind Obama. If Bubba urges unity, the "divided" story is effectively over.

Franken used his fundraiser in Denver to press his case and harkened back to the legendary Sen. Paul Wellstone. Well, I knew Paul Wellstone. Wellstone was a friend of mine, and Franken is no Wellstone.

McCain has been tweaking his P.O.W. story, with some variation, for many years. For Democrats, critiquing its overuse is too little, too late.

By going back to this line of defense over and over again, McCain is on the verge of doing something that once seemed impossible: Turning his horrific Vietnam experience into a punchline.

Hillary's convention speech definitely fell short on detailing a personal case for Obama as the right person for the job. That's the core issue for the remaining voters.

There is something coming Thursday night that is a blunder big enough to warrant the criticism: the Greek columns on the stage of Invesco Field where Obama is to give his acceptance speech.
