According to Twitter<\/a>, “The end [of] @MichelleObama’s speech drove a higher Tweets-per-minute peak than @MittRomney’s at #GOP2012. 28,003 vs. 14,289 for the Gov.”<\/p>\n

If you saw it, you probably know why that was. We don’t take sides in these things, but we know a good speech when we see it. Even Chris Wallace on Fox “News” had little choice, as much as it seemed to pain him, but to call it “masterful”. Former Republican Party Chairman Michael Steele described it as “one helluva speech.”<\/p>\n

While partisans always enjoy pretending First Ladies (anybody’s), or even hopeful First Ladies, are just “amazing”, they rarely are. This one, on the other hand, no matter what you may feel about her husband, actually is — at least if her eloquent and extraordinary speech tonight is any indication.<\/p>\n

Too bad shitty speakers like Bill Clinton on Wednesday and Barack Obama on Thursday, are gonna have to meet her incredibly high first night bar.<\/p>\n

If you missed the speech that lit up Twitter tonight — and even led some to call (only half joking?) for “Michelle Obama 2016!” — the video of the entire speech follows below…<\/p>\n
