Harris' acceptance speech was a home run.

It's one of the best political speeches I've ever heard. Absolutely flawless with no false notes. Optimistic, encouraging, while being pointed and clear about the deficiencies of her opponent. She's become so much better of a politician in delivering her message.

And I have to give kudos to the incredible political instincts of her and Tim Walz. Both gave speeches that were so right-sized. Walz was scheduled to go another half-hour, but he knew he didn't need it, Kamala was so succinct and on-point, it needed nothing more than what she gave.

The two of them are amazing and they will be a transformational team leading this country.

A great speech capping off a great convention. Kamala made one of the greatest speeches that I have ever seen or heard. I am confident about our chances. Let's go Kamala and Tim!
