Correspondent Jessica Yellin (CNN) - An hour after Mitt Romney stepped off of his party's convention stage, crowned as the Republican presidential nominee, organizers of the Democratic convention announced several speakers who will appear onstage in Charlotte, North Carolina next week.

The partial lineup released Friday highlights Democratic women, Latinos, African-Americans, and congressional leaders.

The convention speaker list includes Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts; Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley; Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, the former White House Chief of Staff; and former Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine, who is running for a U.S. Senate seat.

It will be really interesting to see the final benediction prayer by Cardinal Dolan. Will the audience of LGBT delegates sit down, will they turn away, will they yell and scream?

Maybe they'll have a "kiss-in" or throw condoms like they did at St. Patrick's Cathedral, or turn their backs on him like they used to do to Cardinal O'Connor.

Where’s Clinton? I thought he was their keynote speaker. You know...the fellow (with the record for raping, groping and using women - and lying under oath) who best demonstrates how the Democrats respect females.

Ugh. What a gang of losers. Really? Rahm Emanuel? I’m surprised he’ll even be able to leave his office with all the bodies stacked up outside his door. The rest of these tools are nobodies. Barabra Lee? I’ve NEVER heard of this woman. The only people I have heard except for Rahm are Corey Booker (who shouldn’t debase himself), Nancy Piglosi and of course, stone wall LIAR Reid. I though WaWa Warren was going to attend as well, or is she too embarrassing? O’Reilly was right when he suggested they rain condoms down after Sandra Fluke Me Hard. This thing is going to be a snoozefest sprinkled with hate and fear-mongering.

Watching Skeletor Colmes lie on FOX right now. God, I hate watermelon liberals.

Don’t forget this guy:

“Grand Imam” for the gathering.”
Imam Siraj Wahhaj

‘At a solidarity speech in 1995, Wahhaj informed the world that it was his “duty and our duty as Muslims to replace the U.S. Constitution with the Quran.’”

This morning a Rhode Island paper reported that Linc Chaffee was also invited to be a speaker. Poor Senator Chaffee must be in heaven so upset to see what his son has become...a shill for the Democrats.

By Pete Kasperowicz, The Hill

A Democratic lawmaker said Wednesday on the House floor that Republican legislators around the country are purposefully trying to deny blacks the right to vote by pushing for voter identification laws.

“It’s no coincidence that a disproportionate number of these affected voters come from communities of color as well as the poor, the elderly and students,” said Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.), a former chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus.

“Having been born and raised in Texas, this certainly looks like a poll tax to me, which those of us remember as a way to prevent African Americans from voting. These voter ID laws have a partisan agenda: seeking to disenfranchise and deny specific populations of voters before they have the opportunity to elect their representatives in government.”

She also said the laws are meant to change election outcomes by “turning the clock back to the days of Jim Crow.”

They are trying to dig up Che Guevera to offset the Clint Eastwood appearance at the RNC

But it doesn't look too promising.

Actually, that one ALMOST makes sense, but in the way she intended.

If the Federales didn’t seize so much of our income, and redistribute it, or threaten to regulate our freedom out existence, we could safely ignore it most of the time. And, prior to say 1914 (when the Income Tax Amendment was approved) you pretty COULD ignore it. Not any more...

John Kerry on the troops: “You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.”

Nancy Pelosi on the economy: “every month that we do not have an economic recovery package 500 million Americans lose their jobs.”
