Thoughts on the Republican Convention

I tuned in for a little bit and here are some thoughts.
- ABC, NBC and CBS showed it in SD, while CNN had it in HD. Dunno why.
- ABC was behind. They had Thompson speaking while the other networks had Lieberman.
- Thompson had a great speech. Had some great sarcastic rebuttles to Obama’s tax policy. Still wish he was the Republican candidate.
- I think his loudest applause came from his remarks that protecting our unborn and newborn children isn’t above McCain’s payroll though.
- Lieberman is kind of boring, I’m switching back to baseball.
Lieberman did have a flat delivery, but he had the most to say about choosing what’s best for the country, not what’s best for any particular party.
yeah, I saw that part. It seemed like that was the only part though, did he go anywhere else? It was a bit of a cool down after Fred’s speech. And the baseball game went into extra innings with a game winning hr in the 11th.
