I remember that Clint Eastwood seemed like such a great idea. I’m glad that I don’t have to create a lineup that attracts viewers and still succeeds in making the candidate look good. It’s not an easy job. I am guessing that if there is too much entertainment and not enough politicos, the coverage will be a constant refrain of “the important Republicans will not appear at this convention,” etc. So, I think we need enough bigshot politicians on the stage even if they’re a bit boring.

I thought I’d read at FR earlier this week that if they won’t endorse Trump, then Trump told them they don’t get to speak at the convention.

Trump also said that if they didn't honor the pledge they made, which he said may be legally binding, they should be prohibited from ever running for public office again.

While that may never occur in a legal sense, with Trump at the head of the Party it probably will happen in the practical sense.

The Party may never give Cruz or Kasich another dime.

Hugh Hewitt? LOL!

I like listening to him every once in awhile, I enjoy the strain in his voice as he tries speak positively about Trump.

He has no other choice, of course, and is facing 8 long years of forced march for Trump.

I enjoy every painful step he takes.

Aw shucks. I wanted to hear about the mailman again. It’s such a captivating tale.

Can't talk now, I'll tell you later...

“...which would set the 2016 convention apart from past conventions packed with current and former elected officials.”

..current and former RINOS, he means.

I’m with you, Leni - positively heartbroken that we won’t be able to hear from all of the illustrious Pubbie grandees ;-)

This article indicated that he had problems getting Republican leaders line-up to speak. A little while ago on Fox, they mentioned the sports figures and his family would be speaking and that they had a large list of Pubbies that wanted (asked) to speak at the convention.

I agree on Milo. I would like to see Steyn and Diamond & Silk as well.
