   Some masterful speeches at the DNC so far. #AOC brought the passion & #HakeemJeffries brought the joy. It feels like a party reborn.

     #HakeemJeffries is having a very good time. And so is the audience.

     #HakeemJeffries' speech embodies what Democrats are projecting right now: confidence.

     Tim Walz' first experience with a teleprompter was just a couple of weeks ago. But Walz is a naturally gifted communicator, and Republican kryptonite: "While other states were banning books from their schools, we were banishing hunger from ours."

     @WilliamRobert I don't even like football, but I was tearing up by the end of the final pep talk, and was all "put me in Coach!" Walz is a not a great orator in the sense that the Obamas (both) are, but *that* was an effective speech.
