Republic National Convention Part 1

They are really hyping up the soliders of both Vietnam & Iraq. Everytime this one guy (sorry I don't know who he is) says something like POWs stand and be recognized everyone is going to stand and cheer. People were chanting USA i think...that is more i don't want to say energy because certainly the DNC had energy. But something is different.
(At least this guy didn't talk very long)
Bush's speech :
backing himself (standing in the rubble of buildings promising survivors quote)
talking about McCain's POW time...didn't break his honor (what about his spirit??)
Getting alot of applause...Protector. Has to wait to get applause..where's the screen telling them to applaud?
Made them laugh. (commentators saying a way to seperate him and McCain)
alot of honesty Frankness & speaking from the heart describing McCain
rather loose an election than loose a war...What does that mean to me? (or prospective voters??)
Offensive tactics = main attention. Now focusing on Palin...2 seconds that's it??? 2 seconds talking about her????
optimistic ...sunrise. (reminiscent of regan)
They like Mrs. Bush.
Why is everyone saying "God Bless" insert item of choice???? Isn't that a good way of ticking people off?
Bringing up Mrs. McCain's rep. Interesting touch.

Later...Really going into McCain's story. I'm sorry but it's getting to be a little much for me. Yes I know he served. Yes I know he's a great man. But I want to know what he is going to do NOW not what he did. Seems almost like i dont know how to put it...but like getting votes through his suffering in the past. I have no doubt he has a fine character. But I am tired of the POW story. It has been worn out.
But they are keeping it up to make the American Ideals seem to be his middle name. Something that voters want to see.
finally mentioning the spirit not broken.
saying we're winnng. That's debatable...no matter what side of the aisle you are. Made them start chanting again. What is with the chanting???It has an affect I cannot describe!
Still keeping up the inexperienced argument against Obama. How is that going to backfire?
Looks like there's not much else to see tonight.
