Hey everybody, we got a great one today, you know, for a change.

Well, actually not really, because we have Molly Jong-Fast and Mark Leibovic, who are always great together.

I caught up with them the day after the Democratic Convention.

They were both traveling, but

Peter managed to capture them both for this conversation. You may remember I had spoken with

them not long ago after the Republican National Convention, where the Republicans were cocky as

hell, coming right after the assassination attempt, and of course, with Biden still in the race.

And we were depressed as hell because Biden was still in the race. But of course, the Trump team

was kind of fooled by not anticipating what Mark calls an 80% chance of rain, that Biden

would most likely drop out and everything would instantly

change. The Trump team had everything in the Biden basket and got caught flat-footed.

Because if you watched the Democratic Convention in Chicago this past week, quite a contrast to

the Republican Convention in Milwaukee where former President Trump confidently

improvised a 90-some-minute monologue that passed as an acceptance speech.

We had our former and current president speak, Clinton, Obama, Biden.

Former President Carter couldn't make it, but he had a good excuse.

And Hillary gave a brilliant speech about all the cracks in the glass ceiling

that Vice President Kamala Harris will smash on November 5th if we all do our jobs.

As Vice President Harris implored us...

Fellow Americans, this election is not only the most important of our lives.

It is one of the most important in the life of our nation.

Yikes. Oh, boy. Not one of those again. You know, the last one was pretty damn important, too.
