I thought the speech was pretty good. My favorite line was when Kerry quoted Lincoln saying "We shouldn't be praying that God is on our side, we should be praying that we are on God's side."

I wasn't expecting any definitive platform to be laid out. Conventions usually build off of the energy and try to attract people to the politicians moreso than the policies. As September and October near, that's when the actual detailed platform will start making its way into the mainstream.
