Not long after CNN’s initial analysis of night three of the Democratic National Convention declared former President Barack Obama’s address “the most powerful address he ever gave,” a follow group of the Zuckerville collective somehow managed to ratchet up the glowing rhetoric Wednesday night. Taking over as the main host, Anderson Cooper was enthralled by what he heard and suggested it was more than just mere historic. “[A] history-making speech from Kamala Harris and really a history-shaking speech by President Obama, just an extraordinary speech,” he gushed. Seemingly aiming to be more ridiculous than her host, chief political analyst Gloria Borger compared the former Democratic President to Martin Luther King Jr. “You know, Anderson, and just watching this unfold tonight, I have to say that watching Barack Obama, this was not a convention speech, this was sort of the new definition of the ‘fierce urgency of now,’” she said, referring to King’s March on Washington address. She took things to an even greater extreme by declaring that Obama was calling on the American people to “save democracy” from the “national emergency” that was Donald Trump’s presidency. Borger also spouted off with a litany of adjectives; calling the speech “intimate,” “chilling,” and “on a higher plane” of existence. “This was the emergency. And he is saying, you know, you've got to do this now and you could – you could see it in his voice – you could see it in him,” she touted.     To lend weight to Borger’s shill analysis, Cooper then read off a series of Obama quotes: COOPER: Yeah, let me just read a couple of the lines. “Everything depends on the outcome of this election in 76 days.” BORGER: Yes. COOPER: “Do not let them take away your power.” “Do not let them take away your democracy.” “Make a plan right now.” He talked to white factory workers, to black mothers-- BORGER: Right. COOPER: To new immigrants. To young people. And, again, he repeated that refrain, “what we do echos through the generations.” “And so, this was sort of a cri de coeur, I don't know what you want to call it, but a President talking to the country, a former President talking to the country and declaring an emergency,” Borger added. Cooper’s disdain for Trump was palpable when he opined about how Obama was “not screaming in all caps from the White House like President Trump on his Twitter machine.” But just as with what happened with the group ahead of them, this new panel had to make a concerted effort to put Obama’s comments aside and speak about their current nominees for president and vice president. It’s not a good sign. This swooning for Obama was made possible because of lucrative sponsorships from Uber and Home Adviser.

CNN’s America's Choice 2020: Democratic National Convention August 20, 2020 11:23:47 p.m. Eastern (…) WOLF BLITZER: He certainly did. And, Anderson, the former President of the United States made it clear that the stakes for all Americans right now are enormous. ANDERSON COOPER: Yeah. Talking about 1776, he said, “what we do with the next 76 days will echo through generations to come.” That's a theme he repeated actually twice in this speech. I mean, Nia-Malika Henderson, a history-making speech from Kamala Harris and really a history-shaking speech by President Obama, just an extraordinary speech. (…) GLORIA BORGER: You know, Anderson, and just watching this unfold tonight, I have to say that watching Barack Obama, this was not a convention speech, this was sort of the new definition of the “fierce urgency of now.” And I could see him in the Oval Office. It was intimate and it was chilling and he was declaring a national emergency. And what he was doing was saying, “I need you to save democracy. Nothing less.” Yes, he talked about what he believes, et cetera, et cetera, but this was on a higher plane. This was the emergency. And he is saying, you know, you've got to do this now and you could -- you could see it in his voice – you could see it in him. COOPER: Yeah, let me just read a couple of the lines. “Everything depends on the outcome of this election in 76 days.” BORGER: Yes. COOPER: “Do not let them take away your power.” “Do not let them take away your democracy.” “Make a plan right now.” He talked to white factory workers, to black mothers-- BORGER: Right. COOPER: To new immigrants. To young people. And, again, he repeated that refrain, “what we do echos through the generations.” BORGER: Right, and so he's saying, “don't let them do this to our country. They can't take the democracy away from us.” And so, this was sort of a cri de coeur, I don't know what you want to call it, but a president talking to the country, a former president talking to the country and declaring an emergency. COOPER: And, David, not screaming in all caps from the White House like President Trump on his Twitter machine. (…)
