Repub Convention–Day 2

First, day 1 was a bust–Gustav peed on their parade. The Delegates had to forego the McCain-Palin love fest and play a different political card–sympathy. Mrs McCain and Bush asked the people to give and give some more to help the victims of Gustav.

DAY 2–or as I call it Pee-Pee Day, Palin and Patriotism and did I mention he was a POW? OMG! Fred Thompson lives! And he was awake and speaking. Lieberman was–well–Lieberman. If you listen to these guys talk about Palin, one would get the impression that the convention was a bout her and that she has more “executive” experience than even her running mate.

The media coverage was the usual crap. But one thing that was different was that there was a plethora of Repub surrogates telling the world all about McCain’s plan. It was different from the Dem Convention in so much that the media allowed just about as many Republicans to voice their positions as Dems at St. Paul the Repubs get a captive audience.

I have one question for the Repubs.  Has anyone told them the economy is in the tank?  Not one of the speakers mentioned it in their speeches, but flag waving was the order of the day.

I always enjoy it when I here people talk about the media being in the tank for Obama.
