So Lieberman is the headliner? lol.

Well, I guess it's better than F. Thompson.

They are letting F. Thompson speak in primetime. Wow.

His campaigning was weak (at best) but I think many find his unique accent quite entertaining.

Really? Hmm.

Coleman's speech was pretty boring.

Anyone know when my hero Rudy will speak? I know he got canned tonight in favor of Lieberman and F. Thompson, but I was wondering if he was rescheduled.

Thursday

Well, as others have said, first nights often suck (and this is essentially their first night now).

Is anyone even at this convention? It seems so empty and boring. When there is applause, it sounds like maybe five people are clapping.

It's just the people who couldn't get tickets for INVESCO Field or Ron Paul's "Rally for the Republic".

CNN just had a "breaking news" bit about the protesters. I missed most of it though.

The protests should get worse tomorrow since Paul's people won't be at his convention any longer.

I wonder if Palin has a higher approval than McCain there... probably so.

It's hard to for me to see how that speech would hurt McCain.

George W. Bush gave it.

I'm not sure if this is good or not. I'm not capable of liking any speechs from this man.

I can't believe he said that. His family didn't look pleased.

I think it's him...you know...coughing.  Tongue

Somebody should get him one of those breathilizer things or whatever they're called.

The crowd doesn't seem to care too much for Lieberman.
