Patch’s Poll: Who Has Had the Best Speech at the Democratic National Convention So Far?

Several speakers have taken to the stage to promote President Barack Obama for a second term, including the first lady and former President Bill Clinton.

It’s the second week of presidential politicking in the United States, as Americans now in Tampa, FL, last week to the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, NC, this week.

Like the Republican convention, dozens of national figures — congressmen, governors and some celebrities — have given emotional, and sometimes fiery, speeches on why President Barack Obama should be re-elected to another four years.

Among the group was .

But tonight is the main event, when Obama will assume the stage during the last night of the convention to accept his party’s nomination for a second term. And expect that he'll have his own firey speech to the American people on why he's the better choice than his opponent, Republican Mitt Romney.

So, we’d like to find out from our Patch readers which speaker has given the best speech so far. Take our poll and share your thoughts in the comments.

The article says it provides information about "various ways" the community can helpRead More teachers. However, it provides information only about the Staples discount program. The link takes you to a Staples website, not to a list of ways communities are helping. In addition, statistics given are national, not relating to Simsbury, or even Connecticut. This seems like a canned article designed to promote Staples. Was it written and submitted by that retailer?
