Booker's was fantastic as well, for sure! Sitting pretty at 3rd for the week imo. He's made it VERY clear that he's gonna be a leader for the party moving forward and that speech will do much of the same power as it did for Barack in 2004.
I think he was first, honestly. I felt JESUS in that speech, which is important because the only deity I believe in is Britney Spears.
Uncle Tim is SLAYING twitter verse right now. Everyone are calling him the likable do good dad, but with hilarious tweets like:
@BuzzFeed
Tim Kaine is the most popular dad at parent teacher conferences
@EmmyA2
TIM KAINE JUST TRIED TO RUN DOWN INTO THE CROWD TO SHAKE HANDS AND GOT STOPPED BY SECRET SERVICE
AMERICA: JOE BIDEN 2 IS HERE
@PJVogt
Tim Kaine is your friend's dad who catches you smoking weed at a sleepover and doesn't rat you out but talks to you about brain development
@politiCOHEN_
tim kaine is that soccer dad who can sing along to any rap song, but hums the cuss words

Tim Kaine is your friend's dad who is perfectly nice & super helpful, but if you ask him "How's it going, Mr. Kaine?" you better settle in.
Tim Kaine did his job - it wasn't to give an incredible speech. He did a good job but there is no way someone new to huge (and I mean huge) public speaking like that could compare to Biden or Obama. What he did was that he sold himself well. People like him. He's goofy, he's charming, he's passionate. He will get better but for now, great job, Tim.
Y'all gotta view this from the perspective of people who AREN'T sold on Hillary or Trump - the independents and disenfranchised Republicans. Of course from a liberal perspective every speech was better than Trump's
Not poor Tim. It's gonna work well for him. He really is a likable guy that you can be amused at their quirkiness. The dynamic amuses me to no end. That's why these tweets are coming rapidly. He was trending #1 for a good minute. I'm still howling at these tweets.
But the one about him going to shake hands with the audience but the secret service stopped him, that was real and it's GOLD.
