“Where’s Sarah and the Tea Party?”
We were shut out by Boehner and Sunnunu.
About time somebody starting hitting Omuslim.
Go Portman!
WMAL reporting RuPaulettes tried to start a protest and they were shouted down by bystanders calling them cry babies, losers, ect...LOL!
Was just going to post the same comment. He says the words fine, but there’s nothing there. Cardboard cutout of a politician, I’m waiting for the real deal - Paul Ryan.
Damned if you
The media will portray them as partying while the poor Isaac victims are suffering
An accountant type like Ryan who seems to understand how the free market works best without government intervention. Yes, we need a bunch of people like that.
I've seen Ryan speak. He knows his stuff. But he's not what I would call "charismatic." We need speakers who know their stuff, but to energize the stay-at-home Republicans and influence the swing votes, we also need some charisma.
Haha that was pretty funny!
LOL!
I was thinking the same thing!
Hopefully Ryan will! (And hope you can hold out to hear him!:)
Might be Indian Rocks Beach its out near the end of a long long beach road across 275.
Now you're talking!
Romney chose well with Paul Ryan. Had Romney gone with conventional wisdom and chose somebody “safe” like Portman or Pawlenty, it would have made for a lackluster, lifeless ticket. Nice guys but you all know the old saying about where nice guys finish.
She’s going to try and sneak them in again. She just doesn’t want to get kicked out.
LOl,Paul must be 175 years old yet still running for potus,time to hang it up!
I know it is mean, but this Steve Cohen could be a character on a Seinfeld episode...
it’s already on wikipedia
“I haven’t seen nearly enough people pissed off, demanding change”
hate to break this to you...
This convention is so NOT about YOU!
It is for the ONLY 5% OF VOTERS THAT ARE INDEPEDENTS OR SWING VOTERS!
They don’t want “pissed off people”..they aren’t angry,they are sad that they voted for Obama and they are very very pragmatic..they just want to see people who can “fix” the economy. You can’t “yell” them into voting for Romney.
Oh I know what they are soing to her today. They are going after Mia with a vengeance that literally screams racism. The dems are the racists par excellence...I just don’t understand why more minorities don’t see it!! The dems only want them as their voting slaves!!
OK. Who set up the echo chamber? !:)
Exactly, Paul Ryan stands for something and he has the ability to express it. We'll see that tonight.
