Not to sound like I'm better then my fellow Democrats on here but, I'm watching SC-Vandy on  ESPN. Let the GOP have their party. Save the snark for the debates.

And what do you think the lies are? Is this Staples man telling mistruths about his company's past?

This speech from the Staples guy isn't helping the Republican cause. At all.

This Staples speech might be the second best in the convention. Basically outlaid what all of us have been thinking. Plus, it's reminds me of Zell Miller's '92 keynote, which was excellent.

You must be mistaking this for the DNC's talking points. Tongue

Who is the condescending jerk who's speaking right now?

C-SPAN doesn't have a caption, and I just tuned in.

Ah yes, what with the foreign-born, anti-colonialist, not Anglo-Saxon, Muslim, exotic worldview and whatnot.

Did this guy really say "a president who doesn't believe"?

You do know that the entire speech was about business, right? This is the perfect example of how preconceptions leading someone to an alternate reality.

Remember what you thought of romney when he spoke garbage during the republican primaries and smeared republican challengers.

Great video - now Craig is doing just a fantastic job, as he always done. I believe he has a future in the Republican Party. Smiley
I believe the Republican party will have more Hispanics in the future, especially future generations.  They'll appeal to their social conservative, family values.

Maybe they'll do better than they have in appealing to the social conservatism of black voters.

Did you see the lack of context to the Obama clip, and Ryan's claim that a Jainesville factory closed under Obama when it closed under Bush?

I'm not scared of Romney himself. I'm scared of the stinking, animalistic, fascistic masses behind him.

They're awfully touchy, haha. Tongue

Also, someone just tweeted that Kerry Healey came out to the instrumental version of
Call Me Maybe
. If so, that's quite funny.

Yes....and my candidates did the same to him, he prevailed, and he is our nominee- your point?

PBS just announced Romney raised over 100 million again this month. Not sure how much.

>Think Obama is a poor president. Believe in math. Naturally become a fascist to the Dems.

Oh Dems. Never change. Or else we'll start consistently losing elections again.

He didn't say it closed under Obama, he said Obama promised that wouldn't if he was elected and failed to deliver.

The "They Just Don't Get It!" guy reminds me of Mike Reed who spoke at the 2006 Republican Convention in The West Wing. His cheesy line was "Eight Is Enough!", and he also made fun of President Bartler's MS. Really pissed off Josh Lyman IIRC.

I'm a bit disappointed in you, Snowstalker....you always struck me as some one who could disagree without being disagreeable
