Better convention - GOP or Democrats?

POLL: Who had a better convention, Republicans or Democrats?

Well, I think it's obvious by now that we killed the Republicans in terms of the conventions. The RNC started off bad with the hurricane, they had to deal with Ron Paul protests, and of course Clint Eastwood over shadowed Romney's actual speech. Christie did a good job of selling himself for 2016, lol. Ann Romney was the best of the bunch. On top of that the TV rating were way down of 2008.

On our side we beat football in TV ratings and were close to the same ratings from 2008, which is impressive. Instead of everyone talking about a crazy actor everyone was talking about Bill Clinton and Michelle Obama. I think Elizabeth Warren propelled herself ahead of her opponent, John Kerry made a come back, and we all around kicked ass.

The republicans got no bump, I bet we got a four point bump.
