This Just In: Finally realized that the song GE and the band played to introduce Paul Ryan was “The Boys Are Back In Town”.

Romney and Ryan are going to have a huge job. Glad they are up to it.

Ryan? I hadn’t even noticed and I’m listening more than watching.

local station WGAN is cutting into Ryan’s speech with long station ids. Moved to C-span.

What a great speaker. Clear, linear, no fluff. Explanatory style. Straightforward and not at all defensive. Strong speaker, strong ideas.

I love that line. Now he’s putting the opposition on notice....their old rhetoric isn’t working.

obama’s termin began with a financial crisis, it’s ending with a job crisis.

began with a AAA rating, it ends with a downgraded America.

I remember when they were hauled out of the ‘04 convention...they tried to get near Cheney.

Ryan is GOOD! He's smart and tough!

His talent will be wasted in a debate against Plugs. I wish he could debate Obama. Barack would slip up and give him the finger again like he did last year.
