Naw, he’s bucking for Education Chairperson in the Romney administration. (kidding)

When you’re finished, my sock drawer could use re-ordering :-)

[RummyChick]

And the Bush cabal is part of who is behind this outrageous vote and refusal to take an honest vote over the rule change

Sarah Palin declined a prime time speaking role.

After the Rice/Martinez/Ryan trio of last night, Jeb Bush is Yawn City, Population 1.

[dfwgator]

I’d much rather watch Gene Gene, The Dancing Machine.

[Elyse]

It’s the writing on the wall. Romney isn’t going to do anything to protect our borders.

Speaking of interviews, will the Dem convention allow conservative interviewers to roam the floor? We have to endure leftists like Mitchell and O'Donnell sticking mikes in people faces and asking what they think are gotcha questions. Will Michelle Malkin, S.E. Cupp and Laura Ingraham be allowed to corner the Marxists and make them explain their inconsistencies? How about Doc Savage being able to freely conduct interviews from the convention floor to be aired on his show? Brietbart folks able to interview and record freely?

Excellent questions!

Doubt they'd be granted press passes!

Naw, he’s bucking for Education Chairperson in the Romney administration. (kidding)

O'Reilly agrees with you.

[P.O.E.]

now be a good time to clean out the lint in the dryer.

Seems like they're dragging out the platitudinous milquetoasts - might make the top card seem better. Exception, of course, for the Reagan video.

TYVM! Got it!!!

[Clint N. Suhks]

Now a Romney speech excerpt montage? Really?

[rodguy911]

There is a move on this guy,its really awesome.

[JudyinCanada]

I guess it’s best to keep the speakers not overly exciting. Don’t want to upstage the main guy. Jeb certainly filled that role well.

[AmericanInTokyo]

It will be up to Governors (like Jan Brewer) and state legislatures to stand up to a President Romney if he back peddles on this one, like to absolutely fear he will do with COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION REFORM.

[onyx]

Caught most of it.... pretty dang boring.

[Freee-dame]

Newt and Callisa followed the Reagan Legacy. It was timed and scripted that way on purpose.

...and completely deflated the enthusiasm built be the Reagan tribute.
