The RNC mistake was to make their convention about anger at Hillary.

The DNC should not even mention Trump once. Stick to positives -- celebrate Hillary's achievements and the march of women's rights, look back at Bill's presidency with sepia-toned glasses, lionize Obama for rescuing the country from the abyss, put forward optimistic policies for the next decade. Stay up-beat, offer solutions, be inclusive.

The contrast with the bitter little toads of the right should be mind-blowing. Be inspirational. Lead.

Bingo show why you are great not why they are evil.

Bill Maher is doing extra shows during the conventions and last night he had the guy who ghost wrote The Art of the Deal on...that guy HATES Drumpf tot he point that he truly believes he is a sociopath :eek:

Calgary Ted doubles down this morning!

Either he will be the nominee in 2020 or he will not be able to be elected dog catcher in Tumbleweed, TX.

Interesting gamble. But if tD knew Ted! would not endorse him, why give him a prime time spot?

All HRC needs is a 4 day ladies social to present a contrast to the disorganization at the GOP.

And one final thought - what if tD walks out tonight, gives the crowd the finger and says no way I am running with this bunch of posterior orifices running tbe party? His ego will probably prevent it, but nothing has seemed to be on script this week.

I saw that image earlier and thought it must have been just an unfortunate freeze frame from an innocent gesture. Nope. It doesn't look any less overt in the video. Did she do it on a dare or something? :confused:

This is such a dumb convention I can imagine her and some friends getting together over drinks and saying, "you know what would be funny?"

Nobody else is taking this fool seriously. Why should she? :D

Cruz should also be thanked for stoking conservative pundit butthurt this morning for our amusement.

Re: Campaign 2016 Part XIV: Just Dropped in (To See What Condition My Convention Was

This is great. It is entirely possible that Trump's people blew off reading Cruz' speech. Everything they freaked out about was already in the speech. This flies in the face of accusations by some of Trump's surrogates like Charles Hurt that Cruz' speech was "unvetted" and thus a sucker punch. It wasn't. Cruz told them exactly what he was going to say hours before he said it, and they did nothing. Then, when he said it, they were furious.

Is it possible that the simplest explanation is Trump and his inner circle are just lazy? They don't think about stuff like this or put in any effort -- they just drift along on the waves of publicity and tweets? Like when Melania has to make a speech they just google and copy?

Like the plagiarism flap, they can't get their story straight. Did they see Cruz' speech ahead of time and let him give it anyway, not realizing he was going to go on 3X longer than the allotted time, or did Cruz give a different speech? It was an awfully hostile reaction not just from the crowd but from the insiders as well (heard talk of pushing and shoving in VIP section afterwards) for a speech they claim they were expecting. :rolleyes:

Regarding Trump, who knows? If he sticks to a script this convention will be known as a snore fest except for plagiarism and a sour grapes non-endorsement. If he goes with what got him here and does a half-crazed rant with no structure or sense I'm not sure who that appeals to beyond the knucks' already in his camp.

A summary of the possibilities here, with bonus for the term "ratf-cked," which should be applied to Cruz whenever possible as it perfectly summarizes his entire being.

Final day of the Derp Derby (with lulz):

Brock Mealer, Motivational Speaker
Brock Mealer is a walking miracle. After suffering a spinal cord injury on Christmas Eve of 2007, he was told he had a one percent chance he would ever walk again. Mealer’s story struck the hearts of millions of Americans. He sustained his injury in a car crash just five minutes away from his home. While his brother, an offensive lineman headed to the University of Michigan to play football, was able to free Brock from the wreckage, the two brothers lost their father, David, and Elliot’s girlfriend, Hollis Richer, in the crash. Today, Brock has conquered the odds and is able to walk again. He now shares his story with many, inspiring those he meets to join the one percent.

If anybody's still on the fence please consider this.

Falwell Jr. needs to be size 7 bold and italics. Super POS.
 
Re: Campaign 2016 Part XIV: Just Dropped in (To See What Condition My Convention Was

THIS is great:

Sen. Ted Cruz’s campaign manager responded to Gov. Chris Christie’s criticism of Cruz’s convention speech, saying that the New Jersey governor had “turned over his political testicles long ago.”

Said Jeff Roe said on the Chris Stigall Show: “That guy turned over his political testicles long ago. So I don’t take what he has to say with any meaning. You know, he embarrassed himself pretty quickly in this.”

:D :D :D
 
Re: Campaign 2016 Part XIV: Just Dropped in (To See What Condition My Convention Was

I heard Falwell Jr. on NPR this morning. He's either full of shiat or so oblivious that it's amazing he remembers how to breathe.
 
Re: Campaign 2016 Part XIV: Just Dropped in (To See What Condition My Convention Was

"...vote your conscience."

HERESY!


Think about that, GOP. You're upset that people want others to vote their consciences. Yeah, it's code for Not-Trump, but it's still a good sentiment. Especially this year.
 
Re: Campaign 2016 Part XIV: Just Dropped in (To See What Condition My Convention Was

The Convention is even better than we imagined! These people are so stupid it defies imagination. It is almost like it is one long troll job because no party could honestly let this happen.
