You are wasting your breath. They just don’t get it. They seem to think we can throw out Obama with 35% of the Country.

Huck did well. I don’t know what all the pessimism and pissing and moaning is about. Maybe some people are just impossible to please.

Good Idea! None here, so I’ve got two browser windows open ( tabs actually) so I can hear the convention from one, and post and read here in the other.

I get it, and I get the math. Doesn’t make it any less irritating.

This just in; new poll. Obama gets 99% of black vote.

Does she even have any political currency? Who would pick this woman to speak?
