I still remember his 2004 column, Dave Barry has got to do politics more often.

I heard the DNC is being described as a borefest by attendees.
What happened to all the DimoTards who were “ready to rumble”?

Dave is good. Very good. Especially this line:

. . . . you just know the Florida delegation will mess up the buttons somehow and accidentally nominate Walter Mondale.

LOL!

“I applaud this program, as well as the many other ‘’green’’ efforts at this convention, such as the bold plan to take the 19,000-seat Pepsi Center ‘’off the grid’’ and power it entirely with delegate flatulence, even though this has forced Barack Obama to move his Thursday acceptance speech outdoors.”

Speaking of the convention: It got off to a rousing start Monday night with speeches by three or four dozen important Democratic party dignitaries, who sounded the convention’s official Monday theme: ‘’A Whole Lot of Speeches.’’ But the big news was the decision to seat the entire Michigan and Florida delegations, which means they will be able to participate fully in the roll-call vote, which means you just know the Florida delegation will mess up the buttons somehow and accidentally nominate Walter Mondale.

Meanwhile outside of Denver, Joe Biden has wasted no time acting vice presidential, attacking John McCain for being out of touch with ordinary Americans because he couldn't remember how many houses he has. I think this might backfire. For one thing, Joe is not really one to accuse anybody of being out of touch, seeing how he has been a U.S. senator for 200 years. But also there's the question of fairness. I mean, do YOU have a perfect memory? Can you look yourself in the eyeball and honestly say that you have never forgotten how many houses John McCain has? I know I have. Sometimes I forget my own pants.
