They still have money and might crawl back out from under a log later
but good golly Miss Sally is the RNC a cluster fuck .... I love how the camera
is trying to hide the empty seats.

2. I wish!
Maybe they could all move to Alaska with Palin and try to secede from the Union.

3. The whole thing has that desperate over-the-top feel, like when a comedian
knows he's bombing.

4. I haven't seen that much but what I have seen
looks embarrassingly pathetic overall.

5. I'm new here
Hello!

I am new here so let me state that it is a great honor to be able to post on such a well renown website.



As far as the seating goes, it could just be an organizational trick to maintain the focus of the convention. You know they keep people in front of the speaker as much as possible to make everyone feel like they are being addressed. I know if I went to a speaking event and had to be behind the speaker it pretty much makes me feel neglected. Anyway, just thought I would submit my 2 cents, even though today it is more like 1 and a half cents.

7. I think people at the Democratic Convention filled up the place and even
Edited on Thu Sep-04-08 08:51 PM by Lex
took seats behind the podium just to be in the arena.

I never noticed great swaths of empty seats at the Democratic Convention anyway.

8. Lindsey needs a pair of short-shorts like Lt. Dangle (Reno 911).
Lindsey (my senator) reminds me of Dangle. Gay, but confused. Authoritarian, but submissive. At least Dangle has guts .. as opposed to the pusillanimous Lindsey Graham.
