Megan McCain's speech was, of course, the most personal; Obama's the best broad look at what it means to be an American, but Biden's, touched me most deeply on the meaning and depth of grief, which of course, Joe Biden unfortunately knows too intimately.
His personal respect for McCain - derived from personal knowledge of the man - made me think anew about the man, but the compassionate and deep and personal way he addressed McCain's family moved me deeply.
Joe Biden is a great man by virtue of being a great human being.

It was taken at one of his campaign events several years ago. Hes such a warm, genuinely kind human being.
