HE REALLY SAID "I'M WILLING TO DEBATE THE GUY…IF HE IS WILLING TO GET OFF THE…COUCH…AND SHOW UP” IN THAT SPEECH HAHAHAHAHA

I LOVE AMERICA'S NEW DAD. I LOVE OUR SOON TO BE MOM. I'M SO EXCITED TO VOTE.

Listen, LISTEN, you gotta watch the video to get the full effect. First off, when Harris/Walz walk out (after a barnburner of an opening speech from Shapiro), the place just SCREAMS for two solid minutes. An absolute wall of sound. It drew a tear to my old and grumpy eye and I'm not afraid to admit it. WHAT IS THIS FEELING? HOPE? UNPOSSIBLE.

Then when it comes to that line, Walz really goes in for the kill because he starts off with a line about how like every other ordinary person in the heartland, JD Vance went to Yale, had his career funded by Silicon Valley billionaires, and then wrote a book trashing his community. Gets big laughs, of course. Walz just stands there with a grin and enjoys the moment. Takes his time. Then absolutely sticks the knife in with the "I'd love to debate him if he can get off the couch to do it." Place SCREAMS.

Walz, with shit-eating grin: see that? See what I did there?

This guy is SO GOOD, y'all. I don't know when we started having this problem, but:

HYPE. HYPEEEEE.
