RNC Convention is on C-Span.
« on: August 28, 2012, 03:56:09 PM »
Complete coverage of the Republican Convention is on C-Span. For those who want to watch it.

C-span1 (channel 350) for those with Directv. I'm not sure what it is for others.

What do you all think about the last minute rules changes that are being talked about today?

From what I've read , some of the changes are designed to protect the status quo for RINOs and to limit the influence of grass roots movements.

I think it's bullshit, but I'm not a member of the Republican Party.  Not much I can do about it other than complain. :???:

They are having the delegate rule calling now.

I would think the rule changes is to appease both Romney and Paul.

Romney needs the Paulbots to vote for him. So they will do whatever they can to satisfy them.

I have a Paulbot on my FB. The stuff they're spreading is definitely more anti-Romney than anything else. Don't count on them breaking Romney's way. They'll vote O or for Johnson (or RP, unless he doesn't want to **** his son's Senate career over)

That's my take on it as well.  Rush was speaking about it the same way on his show today, but I didn't get the chance to here his entire opinion on it.

The Paulbots on mine said they are writing Paul in. I tell them they are stupid. But of course, they don't listen to me.

The Governor of Ohio is on now. John Kasich.


I am looking forward to hearing Ann Romney and Chris Christy speak.

Another note: I see black people there. Those damn racists!

They're really pounding Obama's "you didn't build this" BS.

I found an audio feed.  The upstairs computer is a piece of crap compared to my regular computer downstairs.  I couldn't do video.

Scott Walker is up.

This is why the left hates Rick Santorum.  Successful values and a strong society... it's everything they fight against.

Exactly, he is a great man; with great values and great morals.


Uh oh, he is thanking God. Liberals heads explode in 3... 2... 1....


Edit: That speech by Rick Santorum was amazing. Bravo to him.

Yes. Yes he was.

He's converted to the good side, sounds like.

Yes, he was. He said that him and and estimated six million like him made a mistake in 2008. He is voting for Romney this year.

You may want to stay away from any libs for awhile, the hate and nastiness is going to be turned up to 11.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.
