The Republican National Convention Thread
- Thread starter dtownreppin214

Last night was really uneven. The testimonials by people who know ROmney were really good attempts at humanizing dude but then it got crazy with Clint Eastwood's rambling speech (even though Clint did bring it home at the end) followed by Marco Rubio being so fukking blah.
But Mitt did much better than I thought he would and far better than a lot of the commentators have said he did. Aside form having to do some seriously heavy lifting to get the momentum back after Eastwood and Rubio but he gave a pretty good speech that had as much emotional heft to it that you are likely to ever get from a Mitt Romney and it drove home the narrative that Romney is the serious, workmanlike guy who will fix the economy while staying middle of the road enough to not turn off the independents who he is going to need to win the election.

Swag doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things...but cotdamn it doesn't hurt when a leader has it.
@ the headline of the fox news website that read "Clint Brings Down House At Republican Convention"
Dina needs to throw Ol' Clint in the bushes for a while.

This is about the fairest assessment that I have heard yet. I think Mitt gave an excellent speech myself, and probably the best of his career. I thought Rubio was looking very Presidential as well, and actually did quite a good job. I agree about Clint though, just awkward overall with some shining points here and there, but the chair joke was just poorly executed and he just did not fit in with the overall agenda.
The MSNBC team of Rachel Maddow, Al Sharpton etc was just sickening though lol. I mean their bias is unbelievable. It would have been similar to having Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin interpret one of Obama's speeches. If the man's tie would have been crooked they would have gone on it all night. At times, they dug deeper than the mariana's trench to find something to disgree with.

The fate of that plant was sealed prior to the 2008 election, all but 57 workers were laid off in December 2008. The remaining employees were only there to fulfill a critical contract.
HOLD UP!....ive looked through all the pages and i have not seen a republican response to this post.....where is it? Paul Ryan basically flat out lied.....ya'll can support your people but you cant overlook this...not to mention the whole republican "we built it" slogan is taken out of context from an obama quote.....is that all the republicans can do now is flat out lie and try and trick their base?
