Alright, here's what did it for me.
Senator Obama invoked Dr. King without mentioning him by name.

He then changed his tone slightly to reflect that of a preacher's.

This action transported me back in time, away from the convention.

This speech was absolutely incredible.

3. Honestly I thought the bar for this speech was set impossibly high
but Obama cleared it with ease. A truly gifted man.
