Found this somewhere

and in other news....

You must be logged in to read this quote.

I'm glad they took the woman out for throwing stuff at the camerawoman.  Bigotry isn't tolerated, regardless of the party.

[5280]

Huck should be a teacher for an economics class.

[5280]

Did they really just play a clip of "We Built This City"?

Didn't Winfield predict Romney would use "We Built This City" as a campaign song?

Chances of Romney winning California 52-48 just skyrocketed.

Let's talk about social issues, now.

Huck's too classy for that. I hope.

I love Huckabee's self depreciating humour.

Had he ran, he would've been a successful anti-Romney.

Serious or sarcastic? What did he say?

[5280]

They should get some different kind of music for the RNC, nothing against what they offer.  3 Doors Down was great.  They could try something different and use some smooth jazz or upbeat like Electronica.

[5280]

Ryan is doing a horrible job, he's looking as awkward as Romney...

He's not doing a horrible job, there's alot more people than just campaigning, plus nationwide.

[5280]

Feel the energy from Ryan's speech

[5280]

I like what he says on his mind, clear and to the point.

[5280]

Ryan is hitting all the right notes exposing the horrible truth about the Obama mismanagement of the economy and healthcare.

Financial crisis to job crisis.

Housing crisis to housing crisis not corrected.

Triple A credit rating which still exists.

An administration adrift on yesterday's wind.

These past four years we have suffered no shortage of words in the White House.  

What is missing is leadership in the White House.

Perfect, absolutely perfect.

Only problem is that this not new information.  Everybody has heard this before, especially people involved enough to watch the GOP Convention.

Paul "Ideas" Ryan hasn't said a single idea the Romney/Ryan administration would do.

He makes highlights of what their agenda covers, don't have to go into specific details.  Campaigning is what that's all about.  He's just reiterating what others haven't seen.

[5280]

Paul nailed it out of the park near the end, good speech!

[5280]

Good video of the coverage for Hispanics.

[5280]

Great video - now Craig is doing just a fantastic job, as he always done. I believe he has a future in the Republican Party.

I believe the Republican party will have more Hispanics in the future, especially future generations.  They'll appeal to their social conservative, family values.

[5280]

Geb Bush nailed it with the education address.

[5280]

This may sound superficial... I am glad to see Mitt wearing a red tie for once. The man looks like a President!

We should do away with the traditional red ties, a black tie is better in a black suit.

[5280]

It looks like the RNC has banned small vendors from the convention site:

I thought they liked small businesses.  

Maybe they didn't want to have more foot traffic around the area? They should of let them sell stuff nearby.

[5280]

Awesome intro for Clint Eastwood!

[5280]

Who is Clint talking to down there?

Obama taking the place of the empty chair.

[5280]

This is definitely the worst speech of the convention.

His age is catching up to him unfortunately.

[5280]

Rubio 2016!

[5280]

Man, wish Rubio is running for President now.

[5280]

Rubio is going too religious, even for a Republican.

He should tone that down.

[5280]

Romney made me nervous, but he's doing good.

[5280]

Game over.

Too much videogames?

[5280]

Romney the great family man.

[5280]

He's doing a good job appealing to be non-partisan.
