I just learned from Ann Romney that Medicare isn’t the only thing the Republicans are going to save from those black-hearted Democrats. Thank Elvis, they’re gonna save the women too! The GOP has our back girls!
Yeah Mitt!
(IN FAIRNESS: The woman is a terrific speaker.)
You can have wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, or democracy. But you cannot have both.

She IS a good speaker. Too bad she couldn’t teach HIM.
Chris Christie was going well too until he started his WE and THEY stuff.
So far, I haven’t felt reassured.

marylee, I agree. I posted before he got to the second half. His speech went pretty boilerplate although he delivered it much better than most. And when, as I said, he got to the ‘blaming the Dems’ for everything that’s wrong, I thought the audience reaction was luckewarm. But maybe I was just hoping. And it DID become mean-spirited, a side he would have done better to hide in this instance.

I gotta admit, I actually didn’t think Ann was that good of a speaker. I thought the “I love you, women!” was just awkward.
On the other hand, I thought Chris Christie was very good. Disagreed with him, but a great speaker.

That ‘women’ part of her speech felt entirely false, it was painful and obviously written to counteract the ‘GOP anti-women’ meme. On that, it failed utterly. I thought her strength was in talking about him. She didnt do a lot of that, but it was strong when she did.
Christie was the most anticipated speaker of the whole convention – now that he’s done, the sense of build up to something is gone -for me at least, although I’ll stick with it.
You watching it all brat????

You may be right about the parts where she talked about Mitt…somehow her speech just didn’t resonate with me.
I’ve been working a lot lately and so that has eaten into my Convention-watching time…sigh…but I’ve been trying to catch as much as I can, so at least most of the prime time stuff. Since I’m such a politics junkie, I love the Conventions way more than I should 🙂
