Their crowds have been an inch deep. What's left of the leftover '60s movement is all sizzle and no steak.

No, the throngs of protesters, or their ideology, are now on the Democratic convention floor, on the podium, in places of power, as presidential candidates. Don't look for the war protesters on the streets - they're running for President.

Amen.

"I don't want a f**king abortion clinic in my neighborhood!" A Hispanic mother added: "It's against the Catholic Church." (Are you listening, Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi?) When asked about her views on abortion, a black mother of three told me simply from her minivan: "I don't believe in it.

but there is a 90% chance one will vote for Obama and a 70% the other will.

I’m so disappointed, I guess the ‘99 - ‘01 anti-globalization riots were the high-water mark of that particular era.

We need a new spate of nostalgic documentaries and at least one dance-number musical to commemorate that brief, shining moment.

I suppose there are already late-twentysomethings hanging round Starbucks reminiscing about the good old days.

I had started to worry that I had bought too much popcorn. However, the “B” Western, barroom brawl I anticipated has turned into a Leslie Neilsen comedy that's just as entertaining. And it's only Wednesday. There's still a possibility the “B” Western will show up not to mention Barry's reprise of Jewel of the Nile at the stadium.

One buffoon shouted, "Kill Michelle Malkin," while the levitation experts chanted, "Peace and Justice!"

I’m not sure how to take this news. It appears to me to say that the real hard-core nutbags are few and far between. Would have been better for the Republicans if tens of thousands had showed up.

I'm disappointed.

I was hoping for teargas.

I watched the scene of Michelle being screamed at by that moron, “Al Jones” and all I could think of were the followers of Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Castro- we have seen these people before. Stupid, clueless, naive bullies without a clue.

If you could ever get “Al Jones” to STOP screaming and actually debate like a grown-up, we would find what we ALWAYS find...that they haven’t a thing but emotion, what they “feel” and the bumper-sticker slogans they have been fed. Facts don’t register in their world. In their bitterness, unhappiness and lack of fulfillment, they feed off each other like parasites.

Michelle needs to be more careful “out there”. These people are not decent fellow citizens. They are over-sized babies who act on their impulses, and she could be hurt.
