Mass. delegate praises Thompson, Lieberman speeches

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. -- Reflecting on Tuesday night's primetime speakers, Robert Magovern, a member of the Bay State's Republican delegation, applauded former U.S. Sen. Fred Thompson and U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman's speeches for two different reasons.

Magovern, a delegate from Agawam, said Thompson's (Tenn.) lengthy speech that detailed presumptive Republican nominee John McCain's (Ariz.) time as a prisoner of war was "the most informative" of the night.

But, he added, Lieberman's (I-Conn.) was the "most effective." Lieberman, the 2000 Democratic vice presidential nominee, Magovern said, "will bring Democrats into our tent as a former flag bearer of his party."
