1. Thank you!

[tallahasseedem]

2. Ben Jealous coming around on Kaine...

which is light years ahead of where he was last night!

A positive on that...ready for the rally!

[Iliyah]

3. I can't stand corporate media so thanks for the above

[auntpurl]

Here's another stream (not as good looking as yours, but without the commentary):

Looking forward to seeing them in their first appearance as running mates!

[RAFisher]

6. Thanks. I was trying to find the best link to use.

All the YouTube Live links I saw used CNN, which is awful.

[liberalmuse]

5. Thank you kindly!

[RAFisher]

7. DWS spoke but now CSPAN is playing a rerun because nothing is going on in Miami

Not sure why.

[MoonRiver]

8. K&R!

[mucifer]

9. Kaine is doing a great job Thanks for the link!

[auntpurl]

10. That is not today's speech.

That's the previous event they did together - they're just playing this while we wait. We're waiting for them to come on in Miami.

[Hortensis]

12. I was just starting to wonder. :) Thanks, and thanks RAFisher.

[mucifer]

18. Wow I'm a doofus !

Thanks!

[auntpurl]

19. No, C-SPAN wasn't making it clear!

You're not a doofus.

[mucifer]

56. It was pretty clear

I need to read.

But, I'm enjoying both speeches!

[Grey Lemercier]

11. Kaine is going to put paid to that bigot Pence

[femmocrat]

13. Katy Perry song is on... should be starting soon! nt

[RAFisher]

14. Finally it begins. Clinton and Kaine on the stage!

[auntpurl]

15. They're out! Finally!

[femmocrat]

17. Wish I was there! Everyone looks very excited!

Shallow note: She looks super in that color!

[auntpurl]

21. Both that colour and that olive green she had on yesterday

look amazing on her! I can't wear colours like that - I look like a corpse.

[nolabear]

23. I'm glad someone is being girly with me. I liked them too!

She looks good. I'd BE a corpse if I had to do what she does.

[auntpurl]

24. No kidding!

She and Bernie both - I don't know how they do it. I'm 25-30 years younger and it would kill me.

[nolabear]

27. I'm not much younger and I hope she has a masseuse and great insoles. LOL!

[MoonRiver]

16. They look awesome together!

[tallahasseedem]

20. Electric!

[femmocrat]

22. "That's my kind of guy, Tim" LOL

"He's a progressive who likes to gets things done"!

Tim looks so happy to be there that he can't sit still! He is enthusiastically clapping, waving, grinning, etc. as she relates his biography. What a contrast to the frozen held-hostage look of Pence!

[nolabear]

25. They look like actual human beings, who look at you not through you. I love his humility.

[tallahasseedem]

29. It's inspiring!

[musicblind]

26. Her speaking voice is so much better than when she tries to shout.

I wish she would refrain from shouting at all of her events.

I do not say that because she is a woman. I said the same thing during Trump's acceptance speech. He kept shouting at me and I hated it.


Actually, as I type this, she is starting to talk in a speaking voice. It makes SUCH a difference.

Look how good she was in one of her very first interviews in 1992, when she explained how much she loved Bill Clinton. She did it in a very matter of fact, calm, convincing manner. That is how she should orotate on the campaign trail.

[nolabear]

32. She's taking someone's advice on making what I call an emotional mixtape.

Taking you up, holding tension, then down to rest and appeal to your tender emotions, then back up and guiding you to a crescendo. It's a great art. She's getting better. I watch The Donald flog people like they're horses hitched to his chariot, assign as he hears the smallest relaxation going back to an emotionally-stoked cliche, and I know how horrible the end result of that is.

[musicblind]

36. I agree that she is getting much better.

I just hope she has it perfected by the end of the convention and gives the best acceptance speech since Obama 2008 or better.

Public speaking is very hard. I say that as someone who has a job that requires me to do it A LOT. I will readily admit that I am not nearly as good at it as Hillary is. But I just see little things she could do better and I want her to be her very best. I believe in her and I think she says all the right things. I just know how shallow and dumb many people are. They will only listen to the "tone" and not the words.

For example, Cruz has amazing tone... but man his words are filth. Nobody could vote for him if they were listening to the WORDS he was saying.

I guess, I really like her tender moments more than her crescendos because they seem authentic to me. I guess I'm one of the few people who honestly thinks she is a warm person and comes off best when portraying that.

[nolabear]

64. I speak in public a lot too, as a poet and author. I loved listening to Kaine today. He's good.

I think she's a warm person too. Frankly I think she worries about that woman-as-weak stereotype that men don't have to deal with in the political arena.

This was a good roll-out. I'm happy!

[auntpurl]

40. I agree, and I am a MASSIVE Hillary supporter.

I think she is getting better. It must be very difficult to judge volume and pitch when the audience is screaming.

[writes3000]

28. Tim's Biography is kind of undeniable. A lot of heroic achievements.

[SaschaHM]

30. That Housing Discrimination parallel is going to be killer...

for the Donald.

While Kaine was fighting it, Donald and his daddy were doing it.

[writes3000]

33. YEP!!! Kaine was fighting against housing discrimination. Meanwhile, Trump was getting rich off of

Denying housing to African Americans.

[musicblind]

31. She looks so good.

She looks so naturally young compared to her age and her hair is perfect.

My mom is a hardcore republican who is sadly voting for Trump. (I am trying to convince her others, but I can't.) And she claims to hate Hillary, but even she has stated many times how much she admires the way Clinton looks. She even told her hairstylist she wanted to have her hair cut like Hillary's and she loves the clothes Hillary picks out.

Now if I could just get her to love Hillary's policy positions.

[femmocrat]

34. Kaine speaking now!

In Spanish! LOL

His son is a Marine who is about to deploy to Europe to help guard NATO allies. Wow.

[auntpurl]

48. I hope they keep that in the public eye through this campaign.

It gives him a very personal stake in the outcome, and it shows up how vapid and shallow Trump's kids are.

[tallahasseedem]

35. He is doing a great job!!!!

[musicblind]

37. Kaine is a great speaker! n/t

[tallahasseedem]

38. Already throwing the red meat...

CAN'T wait to have him on the trail!

[michaz]

39. Kaine is great! Very impressive!! n/t

[MoonRiver]

43. He's fantastic!

This pick is looking better and better!

[SunSeeker]

41. Wow. The crowd is fired up! They are loving Kaine.

[MoonRiver]

46. I heard someone shout "we love you both!"

[RAFisher]

42. Wait. People say Kaine is boring? I'm convinced those people never actually saw Kaine speak.

Seems like a very good speaker and politician.

[auntpurl]

44. Seriously - he's doing amazing!

Funny, warm, genuine. I really like him!

[chillfactor]

45. What a stark difference between...

dumdum and pence's first appearance and this one. pence sat on stage with a stone face while dumdum hogged the stage.....and this one with Kaine happy, smiling, clapping.....and he even gets a chance to speak eloquently.

[writes3000]

47. Republican Ana Navarro Is Raving About Tim Kaine on Twitter

@timkaine speaks pretty good Spanish y'all. Better than some Hispanics in Congress. And Kaine's able to switch languages pretty seamlessly.

[drray23]

49. kaine is killing it.

So much for being boring..

[glennward]

50. What a contrast to what we saw and heard from that RNC debacle.

Tim actually worked in his fathers union business...the Trumpster sons only accompanied their father to look at building sites.

This man is a good choice. He is the real deal!!!

[workinclasszero]

51. Good speaker

He seems to be fluent in Spanish as well which is a plus.

[MyNameGoesHere]

52. Boring? I guess because he doesn't scream or fling feces he is boring?

I am loving his performance, I hate to call it that because it seems so natural. This guy is a keeper.

[musicblind]

53. This speech just inspired me to make another donation to Hillary for America. n/t

[musicblind]

54. Anyone know where you can buy one of those Hillary pins that Kaine is wearing?

I went through her website and cannot find it available?

[athena]

71. Here you go.

https://shop.hillaryclinton.com/products/pant-suit-lapel-pin

[musicblind]

72. OMG! Thank you! I was looking in the button sections!

I love how that pin shown on TV. I'm definitely getting one!

[drray23]

55. i m realizing that the fact

he is both catholic and spanish speaking is likely to cut into the cuban american voters who tend to vote republican. He is going to help us carry virginia, north carolina and florida. The more I think about it, the more I realize how good this pick was for a vp.

[writes3000]

57. And his son is an ACTIVE MARINE!

[mopinko]

58. rocking it.

he IS gonna help bring in the hispanic vote. compared to drumph, someone who speaks to them in their own language? come on.

great roll out.

[mcar]

59. How can anyone say this man isn't progressive?

He is pure old school liberal.

[auntpurl]

61. He just brought me to tears.

Talking about VA Tech.

He is amazing. I am in love. I really am!

[mcar]

62. Me too!

[Grey Lemercier]

67. I teared up too, and he WAS REAL about it, you feel the angst and pain that lives

still and haunts him

[writes3000]

60. The Virginia Tech Story brought me to tears. This is a good guy!

[tallahasseedem]

66. I cried as well!

Very moving...

[yallerdawg]

63. Damn.

He's good!

[nolabear]

65. That was a great, humane, progressive speech by a clearly smart man and team.

Makes me proud.

[writes3000]

69. I really feel like I fell in love with this man. He's fantastic!

[MyNameGoesHere]

68. Holy fucking amazing!

I am uplifted and hopeful. I don't feel like flinging myself from a tall building. This is how you lead! This is how you spread hope and direction forward. Fuck that orange penis head and the fascist horse he rode in on,

[mucifer]

70. The republicans calling into cspan after the speech are mostly

ANTI trump

That's pretty awesome.

[lucca18]

73. What a powerful speech! I am very impressed with Tim Kaine!

I hope he brings the same wonderful energy when he formally accepts the nomination this week!
