I thought the whole routine a nice homage to Col. Stewart.
That was what was happening. Maybe there are too many younger people that don’t remember Jimmy Stewart..and certainly don’t remember Harvey.
Gran Torino is one of his movies I haven’t watched yet to the point of being able to recite the dialogue. When I get time, I want to go back and look at the end of the movie. I think he was dressed at the convention in very much the same way he was when he went after the bad guys in the movie.

Yes, of course, the entire thing was brilliant, and it made me respect the GOP/Romney team that they reached out to him. Very, very clever. A cleverness that deserves to win.
I’m watching Dirty Harry tonight. 1971. Walker was 4.
‘Nuff said.
Actually, he was Brigadier General Stewart when he retired...
Correction to last: Major General Stewart
