The convention is being called to order. Colors being presented now.
Did you notice the slight shaking of McAuliffe's hands? Since he has absolutely NOTHING to be excited about, it must be nerves. ..I was almost concerned...
I recognize these folks. My daughter had many run-ins with them. They are horrible people.

We've been keeping the convention on CSPAN in this house. If not for that we'd be on Fox.
I was thrilled to see those numbers. CSPAN doesn't do ratings. I always wish we could get a number just to know.
I am proud of my daughter that she maintained her faith and principles throughout. She graduated and recently married another art student who is also a person of faith.
Two votes for Bush from them, and I am very proud.
It gets back to what I was referring to as "ways of thinking." One can actually *think* their way into "mental illness." And there are psychological therapies based upon changing the way clients think, as the path back to "health."
In sum, I believe that people are responsible for their behavior -- there is no "illness," per se, that gives them an excuse, or which makes them a "victim" of something that is ultimately out of their control and responsibility.
(Disclaimer: I'm not a mental health professional, but I used to work for an association of mental health professionals; I've got a close friend who graduated with a Ph.D. in behavioral psychology from Stanford who I bounce questions off of on these topics; and I've done a lot of reading in this area. My theory about the link between the leftist worldview and mental "illness" is just that -- a theory; but given time, I think I could make a good case for it.)
Video of President Bush: Fulfilling a Promise
Or something like that
Yup, I think a lot of folks prefer C-span for this kind of coverage.
Man, the hits just keep on comin'!
Fulfilling America's Promise
was the name of the video they just played (Barney sighting in the video...LOL)
the one is blue looks like Chelsea
Jim Kelly of the Buffalo Bills interviewed now. "In all honesty, I go to bed every night praying that President Bush will be elected for the next four years."
Per c-span, Zell will be on at 7 PT/10 ET.
