I HAVE noticed numerous "conservatives" like Mike Pence a.....nothing but fawning praise for this musical.

Fawning praise???? Where do you get your information bro, here's Pence's response to his appearance at the play.....

Washington (CNN)Vice President-elect Mike Pence said the boos he faced at the Broadway production of "Hamilton" were "what freedom sounds like." Pence also didn't criticize the show's cast for addressing him from the stage after the play's end Friday night, saying he wasn't offended and understood their message. "I did hear what was said from the stage. I can tell you I wasn't offended by what was said. I will leave to others whether that was the appropriate venue to say it," he said on "Fox News Sunday."

Pence's comments come after Donald Trump's Saturday morning Twitter attacks on "Hamilton," accusing the cast of harassing Pence.

Hardly sounds like fawning praise to me...........Sheesh!

Well, here is the exact quote from Mike Pence on what he thought of the show:

"My daughter and I and her cousins really enjoyed the show. 'Hamilton' is just an incredible production, incredibly talented people. It was a real joy to be there"

Hmmm. Sounds to me like he loved it. If he said afterwards, "The booing didn't bother me, what bothered me is the play was stupid and lame and I was thoroughly disappointed by their take on the material because I'm a big fan of the historic figure and expected better", then you could make a valid case that Pence wasn't impressed by what he saw on stage.
