The Democratic National Convention Teeters …

I haven’t been impressed by the complaining of Carville, Begala, and pundits that Monday ought to have included more attacks on McCain. In fact, I don’t think that making the first day of what should be an uplifting gathering largely about your opponent is a good idea.

But such attacks are necessary at some point — as Eugene Robinson noted on MSNBC, “I’m waiting for someone to mention torture ….” And attack or not, Mark Warner’s keynote speech is the opposite of what’s needed. Conciliatory — even Republican in its bureaucratic tone — and boring.

Very, very boring.
