Folks, we don't stand a chance!
Have you all been watching the Repuke convention? My God, the crowds, the enthusiasm, the electrifying specifications hitting it soooo far outa the park every time! We are so fucked! We can't possibly stop that Juggernaut! The whole thing is so inspiring that I bet they tell Bush and Cheny that things are going well enough that they don't even need to show up.

4. and the diversity!
I see gray hair and brown hair and blond hair and even red hair! It's truly inspiring...a Garnier Nutrisse melting pot if you will.

16. Tsk tsk. You forgot about Cindy McCain's platinum locks.
Until we fully accept platinum-Americans we cannot truly call ourselves the big tent party.

6. They should try bus in few black and brown faces and sprinkle them
in the audience. At least give the appearance that they are not just the White Party.

9. I think we just could not tell if this was sarcasm or..
you were being legit.

If it is sarcasm, I get it. It is a train wreck of a campaign indeed.

10. Train wreck? NAH
More like an airliner crashed into an amtrack train crossing a railroad bridge and the whole thing landed on a cruise ship which then drifted into an oil tanker.

On second thought, I guess that's a train wreck.

19. It seems we've got it.
You would think as a rational observer that we've got this wrapped up. Unfortunately I'm not so sure. I listen to talk radio every day at work, and I've been listening to what people have been saying in my town. Republicans believe their leaders are infallible and annointed by God himself. They see Palin as a genius pick which has energized them and given them new motivation to fight as the underdog. Make no mistake... This is not over. Republicons will defend McCain's pick to the death. She could walk out on stage tonight with a shotgun, shoot someone in the face, and tomorrow they'd be saying how that made her perfectly suited to follow in Cheney's footsteps.

21. I can't wait for Palin to electrify the crowd!
when they call and respond in unison "That's not more of the same, that's change!"
