Hey, pull up a chair. It's tax on tap with David Axelrod and Mike Murphy.

Mike Murphy. I'm Blyriaide. I from a virtual convention debut last night. You know, the only thing that was missing was a

Rama manual speech. That was what that's my only complaint. The first hour could have used it. I kept wanting to go over to a

monk rerun. I was a little bored, but the second hour when the audience showed up, so did the convention.

That's about first. Let's welcome in just by coincidence. Look who's here. It's Rama manual. So welcome back.

I love it when you guys talk about me when I'm out here. Turn around for a second. I got something I have to tell Murphy.

Murphy, you started down this road. So go ahead. Let's just take it.

I'm teeny up, man. I'm teeny up for the law overall impressions. You didn't like the first hour and you like the second hour.

Well, you know, overall impressions. I normally start with Cagney, but on this thing, first question, did anything change in the election? I would say no.

Did the Democrat score? Yes. They scored huge with Michelle Obama, who was a well-known weapon and was well deployed.

You can tell she'd been practicing that speech in her head for a long time to.

Three and a half years. No, no, exactly. In fact, it was probably harder to stop her from giving it a year ago.

But anyway, she was good. We're talking about that. It's the CW, but it's right. She drew blood.

It was a character attack on Trump, which is hard to do, but she had the standing and the and the persona to do it other than that.

I will I will give one lesser kudo to it as well. The Amtrak ad was the best piece of produced video I've ever seen on Joe Biden.

Because it did what the convention should do, which is tell me things about Biden in a way that I believe them.

He's not just some Paul in the suit. He calls the conductor who became his friend when a guy at a heart attack.

The guy really likes them. They're real friends. It was pure Biden. I thought was expertly done.

I'm sure the network's cut away to self cornflakes, but it was tremendous play by advertising.

I agree with that. And it's important not just to give insights into Biden, but also to connect him up with this message that he is connected to working people who are struggling in this country right now.

One of my concerns going into this week is Democrats are so passionate about flaying Trump.

It seems to me one of the big missions this week is to lift up Biden, which is why that Amtrak piece was so important.
