The disparity between my Dems and their Pubs is stunning

We are compassionate and supportive and reach out to those who are different. They are mean spirited and cruel, abusive and selfish. We try to lift people up to equality and they try to tear people down and keep them below themselves.

I am proud to be a Democrat and proud of President Obama.

Their speeches were all downers because they believe in nothing that is good for the American people. All the Dem speakers were incredible tonight.

We talk about each other. They talk about how wonderful and normal they are.

He got over shadowed by a chair and some guy yelling at it. There was no talk of policy. He couldn't even talk about his own life and how that is relevant to how he would govern, he talked about his parents though. I like his parents better now, they seemed like they were probably decent people, two bad they spawned such an ingrate. I think the guy yelling at the chair was trying to get people to stop talking about the taxes, Bain, and Mitt's failed governorship, just a theory.

The chair told Mitt what we all want to say to him. Plus the chair has more personality and a lot less money in Switzerland.
