[7:26] with me.

[7:37] Wave that one like this. Come on.

[7:42] Oh, say

[7:45] can you see

[7:48] by the dawn

[7:50] early light?

[7:53] What's so proudly

[7:56] we hail

[7:59] at the twilight

[8:02] lasting

[8:05] whose broad stripes

[8:08] and bright stars

[8:10] through the perilous

[8:14] fight.

[8:16] All the rains

[8:19] we watched

[8:22] were so gallently

[8:26] streaming.

[8:28] And the rock

[8:31] get

[8:33] the bird

[8:36] sting.

[8:40] made proof

[8:42] through the night

[8:45] that our flag

[8:48] was still there.

[8:51] Oh, say

[8:54] that star

[8:56] sp

[8:58] and

[9:00] away

[9:03] for the land

[9:05] of the free

[9:11] and the home

[9:14] of the

[9:17] bra.

[9:33] And now, syndicated columnist Mark

[9:35] Shields and New York Times columnist

[9:37] David Brooks. Mark, how would you set

[9:39] the scene for tonight?

[9:41] >> The scene for tonight, Jim, is obviously

[9:43] John Edwards is the centerpiece of the

[9:45] evening. Prior to that it is going to be

[9:48] again John

[9:50] >> Kerry is commander and chief John Cash

[9:53] uh cashy

[9:56] the former chairman of the joints chiefs

[9:58] of staff uh is speaking announcing

[10:01] himself to be an old soldier but a new

[10:03] democrat enlisting in John Kerry's army

[10:06] here tonight. Uh again those credentials

[10:09] I mean we're seeing more of running John

[10:11] Kerry as Andrew Jackson or Ulissiz Grant

[10:13] or whatever it is. uh you know that he's

[10:16] the man who was you know tempered and

[10:18] disciplined by this tough battle

[10:20] experience as a young man uh thus

[10:22] qualifying him as a commander-in-chief

[10:24] but and Edwards Edwards has to move it

[10:26] to the future. He really does. The last

[10:28] two nights have been about the past and

[10:29] the glories of the party but has to move

[10:31] it to the future.

[10:32] >> What would you add to that? I

[10:33] >> I just the only thing I'd say is that uh

[10:35] it is all about the commander-in-chief

[10:36] but the the floor is not there. Uh Jesse

[10:39] Jackson gave a speech about an hour ago

[10:41] saying let's bring the troops home. got

[10:43] a standing ovation. Dennis Cusin just

[10:45] spoke. I think I saw three or four

[10:47] standing ovations. The party is to the

[10:49] left. The elite and the Carrie Edwards

[10:51] campaign is to the center, even the

[10:53] center right. And so that's an amazing

[10:55] tension, but because they want to win,

[10:57] it hasn't caused any ruptures. In fact,

[10:59] we
