    OMG!! I can’t stand it!! These people are nuts. I saw a button on one of the delegates that said Guns+God. Yep I remember reading about God and his AK47.

    I hope I can stand it long enough to hear what Sarah Palin has to say. Also why does her daughter always hold the baby and not the husband????? Hmmmmmmm

    Giuliani is driving me crazy. If the Republican Party was NWA, Giuliani would be Flavor Flav. All the non-sense you can handle, looks like a dope doing it, but boy does he rile up a crowd.

    Very very white audience. Is there ant diversity in the RNC?

    On a sidenote: All the noise cannot be good for the baby’s ears. Nice real nice!!!

    personally, i love the “hoosiers for the hot chick” button”. are you serious with this? people say it’s sexist to say she should not have gone back to work 3 days after giving birth to a special needs child, yet these buttons are ok? help me out with this.

    All I’ve heard tonight from the speakers are snide remarks and passive agressive comments.

    They are talking about being mavericks and not being controlled by the lobbyists, when all Monday night they were partying like no tomorrow. With whom????? THE LOBBYISTS!!!

    Give me a break

    OK, and was that a shot of lower Manhattan (where the Twin Towers once stood) behind Guiliani during his speech? If they had a shot of all the speakers’ home cities during their time at the podium, then fine, but if not … BARF.

    what does being a POW have to do with being president? my sarcastic side wants to say if he were a good soldier he wouldn’t have been caught!

    I like how she mentioned how McCain will talk the same way no matter who is listening – so is he going to wait until all of America is listening for him to call his wife the c-word. Pray tell.

    We can’t watch. We don’t have TV, but we couldn’t bare it. My dad’s a lifelong Republican (and a gun dealer!?!), and he cannot vote for McCain. Who are these people? And, who is Leiberman? We are in stunned disbelief.

    This is going to sound horrible, and though I respect very much the individuals who go to war and serve our country, being a POW has NOTHING to do with being president!

    Though it is a reason not to vote for someone, I’m sorry, but you just can’t elect someone who was trapped in a concrete “box” by an enemy nation for 5 years. You never know when that person could snap.

    AND I have never seen so many “Stepford Wives” in one place at one time.

    He already has snapped – the man has a serious anger problem that will seriously impede his judgment. Point blank.

    What an unbelievable travesty that even part of our country thinks this is right. “snide and passive aggressive” – she was very much so… surprised? And I just thought it was here! Did anyone NOT talk about the POW story tonight? Some new talking points would be refreshing. Other than “drill baby drill” that Rudy thought was so entertaining, I couldn’t understand a single one of the chants (on CNN); just mush. Oh, and if you’re not watching CNN, you’re missing Sarah’s sister at the (I’m not kidding) Peanut Farm restaurant. BTW, they found out about her running on tv – close family!

    One daughter (17) has threatened to move to Canada should…I can’t even say it.

    I think I might convince my husband to re-up his Italian citizenship if so.

    My son (21) just called to say that listening to Giulani was “like listening to some horrific, Nazi comedy. It was scary.”

    HA! I had to make a call to the parents too. Let me tell you, us young voters who are still new at this are really getting thrown in the proverbial fire. It’s scary!. …I feel like I need warm milk and some cookies.

    I disagree. I think the fact that McCain was a POW is important. It’s not the situation you find yourself in that defines you, it’s how you deal with it. And by all accounts he was a hero, which is a testament to his character. Just as much as his adultery and use of derogatory terms for women are. It’s a package deal.

    Palin was strong, intelligent and articulate. She also appears to live in an Alaskan “bubble”, and spent the entire time pointing fingers, being saracastic and showing very little respect for the stage she was on. Trotting out the “off limits” kids was a nice touch at the end. Hmmm…wonder if any of McCain’s kids show up? Guiliani’s sure won’t.

    Oh c’mon, that was one of the cutest shots ever!

    I dunno about you people. Maybe it’s b/c I was born & raised in Detroit, and even after so many years in Seattle I still have a flyover country sensibility that (to my surprise) hasn’t completely faded away, but I’ll be utterly amazed if McCain/Palin don’t clean up in the midwest.
