Regarding tonight, Don’t you feel like the adults just came home to find the kids have had a party? Now they are getting ready to lower the boom. Hope I made myself clear...

You're very clear, and right too.

C-Span had to offset all of the positive of the evening!

They need to have a man. Christ did not have women as disciples/apostles. He chose 12 men.

Her prayer sounded like it was read off a teleprompter. Not sincere at all.

I think it’s the only first night I’ve ever watched to the end!

Very different; and hopefully a sign of the times.

Aeeing again on Hannity, a snipet og Marcus Lutrells speech...you can see it in Marcus eyes...he is holding on by a thread...and the only thing preventing him from blasting Obammy with both barrels, is his military training. I could “feel” the fury in his eyes, as he spoke.

I guess not everyone is a night owl like me. But what a tremendous honor it would be to be at a GOP convention. I wouldn't leave early.

Yeah, I don't get it, either.

Agree—CSPAN and some of the You Tube channels are only way to go...

way too much commentary on Fox, CNN, PBS, etd.

I've been watching on Right Side Radio streaming. No garbage talking heads.

I probably should have freepmailed it.

How that ghostwriter could so completely misunderstand what he was looking at is amazing. The self-righteousness, the grandiosity — he should have been a Cruz delegate.

So sorry you missed it, :-(

Melania did quite well and there were a LOT of fantastic speakers.
