10:15p...starting now. Breezed through the first hour. Skipped to Eastwood, loving his opening. What a backdrop picture. FANTASTIC
10:18p...Eastwood stared in a movie called Hang 'en High....RASIST. Code word dog whistle for the rednecks!
10:21p...talking to the empty chair about gizmo and trying terrorist in nyc. Odd but I kinda like it.
10:25p...slams Biden. Hilarious!
10:27p...Eastwood is killing me. I am rolling out of my imaginary chair. Dad has to watch this!
10:40p...yup Ryan/Rubio has no Democratic equal. Rubio is the boogie man hiding in every lib Dem's closet
10:48p...Romney looks oddly feeble walking down the aisle shaking hands. Not digging the glad handing before his speech.
10:58p...at the point where the code pinkies were making a stink. Why do they do that? Come on. I love cspan, didn't cut over just let's it roll. I have only watched the convention on cspan and am glad I have. I don't even watch post game on fox. I know what I heard.
11:00p...I hoped Obama had succeeded cause I want america to succeed. Weak Mitt.
11:05p...Mitt has women on his staff and names the women at the convention. Pandering to the msm. Weak Mitt.
11:10p...getting better. The best feelings Obama voters had was the day they voted for him. Jobs to Obama are about govt.
11:15p...church pension funds lines were good.
11:23p...five point plan, liking that
11:25p...life, marriage, religion. All good there
11:27p...Obama promised to lower sea levels and heal the planet. I promise to help you and your family. Still good. I think he looks like Guliani but with hair.
11:35p...done. Good, not great. Outclassed by Ryan and Rubio. Was best when he spoke as a businessman, not a politician. My hero Ann Althouse summed it up best "And now, Romney has given his speech. It was a Romney speech." That said I agree, he will win comfortably. I will tune in for the dems next week.

Convention Thoughts...Day 1
I will update as I watch day 1 Ma, sorry I am so far behind. I might be missing Ryan tonight. I am going to work out about the time he goes on. I will likely watch him after my workout at 10:30 ish so feel free to write as you will.
7:16p - Getting caught up from day 1, Ted Cruz is on now...meh...
7:22p - Skipping Ted Cruz now, just can not get into it...playing nice with Obama. Davis is on now.
7:23p - DAVIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!! He had me a go....ony three minutes in and I love this guy.
7:33p - Davis killed it, Haley now, still sick of the we built it theme. She opened with it. I GOT IT, the horse is dead and we keep hitting it. I am ok with the theme but they are beating into the ground and it loses all meaning. It should be like jewlery, some here and there to accent and stand out but if you bedazzle the shit out of yourself it gets ridiculous.
7:36p - Immigration/voter ID NIKI HALEY I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
7:43p - Haley was great. Skipping the Puerto Rico Gov's wife, three words in and all I hear is Charro. Can't stand it. WOW Ann looks great, where has she been? Oh, a moment about Isaac and first responders. Nicely played.
7:48p - Woof, this is getting thick. Ann loves women, mom's, aunts, grandmas, neighbor's mom, third cousin women on Mitt's side and their moms. The mom of gas station attendent, the mom, sister, daughter, and aunt of the person who is running the sound board. I am getting full.
7:52p - On to Mitt, this is better. Nice, wholesome, I kinda like it. Nice he built it reference, that is how it should be done.
7:55p - Real marriage, not story book. That was good. Cheesy beginning, really picking up now. She is good.
8:04p - Ann was great, thick and heavy handed opening but last third was great. Speaking of heavy, GOOD LORD Christie is enormous. Ouch, I am winded for him watching him walk on stage.
8:30p - Wrapping up....
Christie was good, energetic, enjoyable but I see what Rush was saying today and why he was underwhelmed by Day 1 of the convention. Christie talked about truth but one thing was noticably missing from almost everyone, the name BARACK OBAMA. They all kind of talked around him, referred to in the abstract, glancing blows but never taken head on. Why is the country broken? OBAMA DID IT. Come on, it is just that easy.
That said, Day 1 had successful Rep Govs Christie, McDonnell, Kasich, Walker, Haley, Sandoval. Name two Dem Govs they can throw up there next week to talk about balanced budgets, tax cuts, improved job numbers, and a growing economy in their states like ours can?
I will end day 1 here. I am going to work out at 9p and will watch Ryan afterward and post on that late tonight (i'm off tomorrow). I will likely skip most if not all the speeches other than Ryan's. We will see.

Convention Memory
I know it is just you and me Ma, but I am ok with it. Just turned the convention on (cspan). I just have always loved the signs with the state names and the delegates sitting together. I don't know why, I just do. I remember them from Reagen in 84. That and the four more years chant.
Update @ 7:05p...Michelle Malkin has a good timeline of that rules vote mess found here.
Update @ 7:07p...Am now watching the undead corpses of the Oak Ridge Boys sing Amazing Grace. Look horrible, sound fantastic.
Update @ 8:00p...Playing catch up, just put Grace to bed. Kasich is killing it! Interesting posts here, the Brietbart crew is live blogging about the media's coverage of the convention. Seriously Ma, check that link. CNN is cutting away from the swing state Gov's speeches (OH, VA, WI) to hurricane coverage and commercials. Fasinating.
