Coach Robinson
As a old guy who played baskatball at Virginia Tech back in 1957-61 years I have watched roundball coaching for years.
Last night I saw a great communicator in Craig Robinson at the Denver Convention.
He did a super job.
He made a great impression that will help Obama and Michelle end up in the White House.
Well done young man!

I was shocked last night
I was shocked last night when I learned that Michelle Obama's brother is the coach of the Oregon State University basketball team. But I really shouldn't be so surprised that Michelle's brother is a beaver, given that her husband is a pussy.
Shocked by the inane comments
Anyone who watches either Robinson or either of the Obamas is left with no doubt as to their solid upbringings and their excellent intention for leading this country (and basketball team respectively--GO BEAVERS!). Someone who uses CHILDISH insults (Heckler) has a poor understanding of the dilemmas of this nation as well as who these people are and what they stand for. That's the problem in this country right now, and I hope and pray that Obama is elected to carry this country to greater heights and mobilization of the public toward greater understanding, and action on, the challenges we face.
In Response To Heckler
You're a good example why one of the worst Presidents in the history of our country was voted in twice for office.
You're a good example why America lags behind even some third world countries in education.
Here's some strong advice - keep your ignorant and sexist comments to yourself. Do something useful with your brain cells.
Don't Be Shocked
Yeah!!!!! but that pussy YOUR PRESIDENT!! BITCH!!
Don't Be Surprised
Yeah!!! But That pussy YOUR PRESIDENT!! NOW BITCH
