      It should be great, her speech was written by her leg waxer.

      Ford’s little “Damn that was a stupid thing to say” reaction after he asked “How are you?” is one of the little things that made Star Wars a classic.

    It’s already here, isn’t it? That future time when there is one party that is all white, vs. another party that is controlled by whites but that “looks” better because it’s far more colorful.

      Close, we have one party that is all white and run by the Illuminati, and another party that is largely white with minority support and run by lizard people.

    Holy shit, Manafort on CNBC just now was basically giving this exact message. No, no, everything’s fine, the fight I picked just this morning with the Republican governor of this incredibly important swing state is nothing to worry about, the fact that several states’ delegates just walked out is nothing to worry about, that’s all in the past and we’re here to move forward, this convention is all about moving forward, there won’t be any empty seats because moving forward convention this is, America make again safe, five o’clock and all is well, thank you for coming, try the veal.

    Good Lord. I didn’t think it would be this bad of a dumpster fire. At least, not this early.

      But if a vote has been prevented, haven’t the “Never Trumps” been neutralized? Are there other shenanigans they can pull?

      From the assorted interviews I half-watched as I was preparing dinner, it sounded like there were quite a few pissed-off delegates who weren’t done trying to do something.

      From what little I’ve read/heard, though, it seems like there’s not much they can do procedurally or legally. But from a PR standpoint alone, they can still cause quite a few headaches.

      Who knows. It’s going to be an interesting few days.

    RNC official Steve King (not that one) mentioned that the last time the Republican National Convention was held in Cleveland was 80 years ago—during the Great Depression, which, he said, was a bit like the last eight years of Barack Obama’s presidency.

    I get that the GOP hates Obama, but does he get no credit that our economy as measured by the stock market and unemployment is doing incredible, especially from where W left it? I really don’t get why he doesn’t get more credit for this, not to mention his measured approach and the number of “terrorists” we’ve killed on his watch.

    After a few minutes of floor arguments (G.E. Smith and company vamped for a bit), Rep. Steve Womack took control.

    Fuck. I wanted Bobby Womack.

      Of all the collateral damage in this shit show, I feel the worst for G.E. Smith. He paid his dues with Hall and Oates, and should have finished out his golden gigging years in the same cushy perch Lenny Pickett has.

      Life. What a Man-eater.
