It was supposed to be tongue in cheeck and I give them credit for doing it. The jokes were written for them, and delivering comedy is no easy task. I thought it was cute. Nothing more nothing less. I thought it was hilarious though when they were not aware that the mike was on and they were waving to grandparents...the one says to the other.."they can't even see us" that was too cute!:smile: I thought the purpose of the speech was to acknowledge the members of the Bush/Cheaney team.

It will not sway anyone over the age of 25 to vote Bush, but it might sway a college student to do so. West Texans do speak their own language as I can attest to by attending college out there. The three Bush women did have the same nervous giggle and I thought this was a hilarious thing. Laura Bush is the perfect example of a Southern Woman.

(Something without attempting so much humor.) They did fine considering what they were give to work from. Humor is so, so tough... Laura did very well and ARNOLD WAS GREAT!

I watched the twins and thought...WOW...these girls are just like most teenage girls! They have not been "trained" to be in the public eye. Instead they have been protected and sheltered. I think it is a testament to the type of parents that George and Laura Bush are. I think it brought out the fact that they are just a typical American family that middle America can relate to...made them seem like "real" people. Being from West Texas myself....I can appreciate Laura's nervous giggle and the mispronounced words of the President. We kinda speak our own language here! :grin: I have to agree!

Their speech maybe could have been better but they did okay. One has to imagine theirselves on a stage overlooking alot of people. Supportive or not it has to be intimidating. Overall I think their lack of sophistication may have been a plus. It shows George and Laura raised their children just like everyone else raises theirs. With love and protection. :wink: KGB, I felt the same way at first but then I realized that these girls were just less sophisticated than the Kerry girls.
