Ted Kennedy declared there was "new hope" for the nation in his surprise Democratic National Convention appearance, while Michelle Obama addressed critics of her patriotism. ENVER, Colorado -- Sen. Edward Kennedy declared there was "new hope" for the nation in his surprise appearance at the Democratic National Convention, while Michelle Obama addressed critics of her patriotism and stressed her love for the country. Republican strategist Alex Castellanos said Kennedy's speech would be "one of the highlights of the evening if not the entire Democratic convention," and CNN contributor James Carville called it "the most emotional thing I have ever seen." "I don't care if you're a Democrat or a Republican -- you're going to be moved by that," he said. The Democratic convention culminates Thursday when Obama formally accepts his party's nomination. Obama, the junior senator from Illinois, will become the first African-American to lead a major party ticket. His wife of nearly 16 years, Michelle Obama, told the packed convention center stories from when she and Obama first met. The woman known as "the rock" in the Obama family also introduced herself as a sister, a mother and a "wife who loves my husband and believes he will be an extraordinary president."

The potential first lady caused controversy earlier in the campaign season when she said she was really proud of the United States for the "first time" in her adult life. Those comments were replayed in attack ads from Republicans. Craig Robinson, Michelle Obama's brother, spoke briefly before his sister took the stage. "Tonight, I don't want to just introduce my sister, I want to introduce you to my sister. The girl I grew up with. The poised young woman I saw her grow in to. The compassionate mother, aunt and sister-in-law she is. The passionate voice for women and children she has become. And the type of first lady she will be," he said before sharing memories from their childhood. Barack Obama addressed the delegates in a short message via satellite at the conclusion of his wife's speech. "Now you know why I asked her out so many times, even though she said no.
