"The real hero of the convention is Mike Bloomberg. He expertly balanced the contentious agendas of the people and groups in nyc with few people getting hurt."

The ugly face of the Democratic Party- from anarchists to communists to pseudo-informed pawns- did their level best to upstage the Convention and failed...Bloomberg deserves much of the credit for keeping the lid on the maniacs.

Bloomberg seems like a political orphan at times. I think he's underappreciated by both Republicans and Democrats. He seems to respect the rights of extremists of both the right and left. I hope the guy can finally get some rest.

I believew such demonstrations help the demonstrators' opponents--us.

Kerry may look pretty mainstream, normal. But if his supporters look unruly, unwashed it makes him look the worse, for the nature of his supporters.

With 24 hour news, I say let them demonstrate, scream, wave signs, curse, urinate/defacate in public.

Brings us votes, from otherwise non-idealogical people, that don't want to "be associated" with such conduct and people.
