    You are The Cap'n!

    Some men are born great, some achieve greatness and some slit the throats of any man that stands between them and the mantle of power. You never met a man you couldn't eviscerate. Not that mindless violence is the only avenue open to you - but why take an avenue when you have complete freeway access? You are the definitive Man of Action. You are James Bond in a blousy shirt and drawstring-fly pants. Your swash was buckled long ago and you have never been so sure of anything in your life as in your ability to bend everyone to your will. You will call anyone out and cut off their head if they show any sign of taking you on or backing down. You cannot be saddled with tedious underlings, but if one of your lieutenants shows an overly developed sense of ambition he may find more suitable accommodations in Davy Jones' locker. That is, of course, IF you notice him. You tend to be self absorbed - a weakness that may keep you from seeing enemies where they are and imagining them where they are not.

    Zell Miller 1, Lardball 0

    I thourghly enjoyed Zell Miller's Speech last night.  (If someone has a audio/video file of it please let me know)

    Even better was Zell Miller serving Matthews a 55 gallon drum of whoops-ass with a side of shut the effe-up.  See the video at MediaBistro.

    Update:  Michelle Malkin weighs in on Miller performance here, its worth the read.

    Update2:  Here is the speech video.

    Update3:  Lileks is good, per usual:
    I’m watching Zell Miller speak, and Holy Crow he is perturbed. The angriest man at the convention turns out to be a Democrat: who'd have thunk. He's brutal. He’s hammering Kerry like a blacksmith; if Kerry was a horseshoe he’d be thinner than aluminum foil. Zell doesn’t gesture, either, which makes him look like someone in handcuffs making a final defiant speech before sentencing.
    As for the Miller-Mathews Duel Challenge, CNBC has a poll on it.  Its currently a 70-30 split in favor of Zell.

    Update4:  QandO has some great posts on the speech.  Along with a link to John Podhoretz commentary on the speech.

    Update5:  In reference to Kerry's record on military equipment, Vodkapundit has a great post about fact-checking, along with reference Citizen Smash's post on a 1984 Senate campaign flyer for Kerry.

    Only topped by him putting Larball in his place. Who would you take in the duel?

    Miller's speech was hands-down one of the top political speeches of all time, in my opinion.
