Great morning my brother
Do you think Joe will mention the racist who was throwing nuts to the CNN camera woman?

I think Joe and Mika are going to go easy on them because just as you called it, they flopped big time! I noticed that the Romney campaign rolled out their recent spinner in chief, Dan Senor.

This is really bad, they are really off the rails in this convention.

5. The night was oddly flat.

Flat and forgettable. The wife was disgraceful in her patronizing assertion that only the women care about the family. (Fathers don't help with the homework?)

Gov. KrispyKreme gave a commercial announcement for himself.

They are in big trouble.

7. Ann R. really came across negatively to me. I know RETHUG women are (by definition) quite different

but could she have come across as anything but an icy self-entitled disingenuous "princess"? (if not down-right creepy?)


When the pundits fixate on "warmth" and who you'd want to spend time with (have a beer with), would anyone here REALLY want to spend time with HER? Really?

13. Her declaration that she "loves you women!" made me gag

Uggh. Pandering to the max. I can believe the overt bully, Christie gives more of a damn about the women of this country than she does--and that surely couldn't be much.

18. She didn't even do as well as a high school salutatorian practicing a graduation speech.

Plastic. FAKE. Reading OTHER people's words and doing a HORRIBLE job of faking it.

There wasn't an ounce of sincerity in that. Zilch.

...says you didn't deliver, that's saying something. She usually drools over speeches like this. Guess Queen Ann of A Thousand Horse Turds didn't rattle her jewelry enough.

I'd like to see the ratings on these speeches...I suspect more peole were watching Call of the Wildman than Ralph Kramden's illegitimate child.

Still...look for the corporate media and the polls this weekend to show a "bounce"...why even bother...

. . . these are severely challenged people. I'm not sure if it's even nice or proper to make fun of them in their mentally incapacitated states.

Were the situation reversed...Whether or not it's even nice or proper to make fun of them in their mentally incapacitated states,it IS the least what they deserve...
