Must be a different channel then. I mostly have his head and only blue. I actually feel bad for him because of this. They should have been more careful with the backdrop so as not to set him up for what is about to come.

The problem is is that they made the backdrop scenery visible to the (small) crowd at the convention, not the 10's of Millions at home.

It's an amateurish blunder.

Also, what was that awkward edit of McCains' Mother saying "Mama's Boy!" in the video?

It appears that for Democrats, appearance is ALL that matters. Who cares about the background...listen to the words.

Obama's words are so empty, that the "SCENE" becomes the most important thing...it's all about the show, and you Libs buy it everytime. Simpletons.

You're missing the point. I said I feel bad for him because of this screwup. They shouldn't be making it so easy for waht is about to happen.

What will happen? The left will use the horror of a pea green background to prove...what?

Listen to his speech and forget the visuals.

Seriously? That's your answer. How sad is it that all you can say is "change" as opposed to how that change is going to come about. Neither candidate has said that. They just say "I will change things". My question is HOW?
