Ew Rick Scott.

A two-term Governor of Florida gets applause for saying "we get to fire politicians". Boy I wish Florida had fired this guy when they had the chance.

That's every year, Voldemort. This is a democracy.

Gov. Scott gave a tough speech. The atmosphere there looks pretty exciting than it did on Day One and Day Two.

She practically gagged when she came up on stage.

(My mom didn't know her well.  She was a quiet person then, so I've heard.)

He had a different vision and a better message. He's probably going to run for the U.S. Senate in 2018.

I think this was the best speech insofar that it sounds like a standard convention speech. The only problem is that it's the third day of a four day convention.

Ingraham is such a gross joke.

Plus, I am dead tired of anyone referencing Ronald fing Reagan 28 years after his mediocre/bad Presidency came to a near disgraceful end.

Dude, Reagan won in epic landslides. Obama didn't even accomplish that. I get that you're tired, but Reagan is the last legitimate landslide president.

winning elections does not mean you are good at governance. Nixon won 1972 in a landslide.

You can have your opinion, but he's generally regarded one of the best Presidents in history when polls are taken.
