Democratic response on the way . . .
-Brian Williams refers to Jim Webb as a Republican Senator from Virginia.
-He also says that his son is on the skids . . .

And here we go . . .

-No fireplace this year.
-Obligatory Jamestown reference by a Virginia politician.
-Obligatory New Orleans reference for a non-Bush administration human.
-A nod to redistribution of wealth.
-Jim Webb's eyebrows are substantially lower than Tim Kaines. Jim Webb is certainly no wizard.
-Trade protectionism. Minimum wage increase. Now he's sounding like a real Democrat.
-The Iraq segment.
-Webb is showing a picture of his father that he's been carrying for 50 years. It's an 8x10 photo. Jim Webb has the largest wallet ever.
-The Iraq war was a mistake . . .
-No one likes it . . .
-We need a "New Direction." I guess that's the replacement for last year's "There's a better way."
-Evoking Roosevelt (Teddy, the non-commi).
-Evoking Eisenhower.
-For anyone who didn't follow the senatorial campaign, you may be surprised that Jim Webb only mentions Republicans as examples of good leadership.
-And that's pretty much it . . .
