Sharpton

By Karl-Thomas Musselman

I was right, Shapton has grabbed the crowd's attention. And in less than 15 seconds he managed to give out one of his infamous zingers. You do have to give him credit, he can rouse an audience and make you understand and believe in him. He's managed to get the entire audience on it's feet twice, thrice 8 a dozen times already.

"This is not about a party, it's about living up to the promise of America."
"Mr. President, read my lips, out vote is not for sale.

Yes, he was great this whole weekend. I got to hear him 3 times while I was up in Boston for the Demo GAIN and College Dems Conventions. I think my faviorte line is (paraphrased):

"Yes, we been with the [Republican]party since Hoover, but we never got our mule, so we rode this donkey and see were it takes us"

It was funny each time
