I've watched 10 minutes of the Democratic Convention

Maybe he too likes "Stuff White People Like."

My economics teacher made us watch it for homework and answer a list of questions... one of them was "What was Hillary Clinton wearing?". As you can imagine I am learning so much in that class...

That's interesting to hear, what with you being an idiot and your opinion counting for nothing.

What about my a complete imbecile?

Yeah, both Clintons did a decent job.
And Biden came across fairly well too. (But then they played "We are Family" and I about barfed).

But Denver seems to be a case-study in how not to run a Convention: bad music, mostly poor speakers, distracted delegates, inability to stay on message, etc. The Republicans do so much better at producing focused, well-orchestrated, venom-filled, bombast than the Democrats.

yesterday I was in the Denver Airport and there were DNC stickers and Secret Service everywhere. Even in front of the CROCS booth in the terminal.

I wore my Bob Dole necktie the whole time. The girl at the pizza counter wanted to know who that was.

I think you have me confused with a drug addled mexican.

Your face

Good speechifying.

(But what was that horrible country song they followed his speech with?)

That song fucking ruined it. I had completely bought into the Obama cult of personality about halfway through the whole thing, then they used that song at the end, and it just felt like he was trying too hard, like he was pandering.

But what was the shit they played after that? Was that the soundtrack to an as-yet unreleased film adaptation of a John Clancy novel?

The first 15 minutes were pretty much the typical political handjob speech, but he managed to work up a pretty good lather by the end. But then that song...? You'd expect something a little bombastic or triumphant sounding. Instead it sounded like Billy Ray Cyrus.
