| Illinois Senator Dick Durbin is delivering an upbeat, funny speech to the New Jersey Delegation. Right now, he is talking about Barack Obama's keynote address from 2004.
Durbin: Alan Keyes is "certifiable, politically."
Durbin continues to weave humor into his account of Barack Obama's journey from Illinois State Senator to Presdiential nominee.
Durbin:
They call [Obama] elite? They listen to the story of his life and call him elite? He knows how many houses he owns.
Durbin implores the crowd not to take a single vote for granted. We need to get every one of the millions of voters who voted in the primary out to vote in the general, so we can beat John McCain and send George W. Bush in his pickup truck back to his ranch in Crawford Texas. An entertaining speech from Senator Durbin.
Now John "Landslide" Lynch is speaking about his experience as Governor of New Hampshire. Lynch describes his effort to pass a bill to raise the compulsory education age from 16 to 18, in an effort to reduce the state's high school dropout rate.
