(Live Convention Thread thru Tues night) Why This Year’s GOP Convention Will Be Historic

[Valin]

Sher Valenzuela...Now That's a Story!

[pollyannaish]

She is so good.

 

Can I just say that I am SO proud of GOP women? We are competent, beautiful, great moms and strong, capable women. We are not victims. We do not need the government to bail us out of being women. We need it to get out of the way so we can BE women.

[Rheo]

I'm feeling good about politics again! (ok, maybe the wine helped.)

 

This is fabulous. Loving it.

[Rheo]

Oak Ridge boys up now.

[Rheo]

Amazing Grace

[Valin]

OMG! they are singing about God! I'm...concerned.

[pollyannaish]

Amen.

[clearvision]

Can I just say that I am SO proud of GOP women?

There are GOP women willing to go public?

[Rheo]

I'm crying again.

[pollyannaish]

I am VERY proud of Cathy!!!! Woot woot! Something to be proud of in my state. Whoooooohoooooo! (She is a terrific a person in real life as you can possibly imagine.)

YES. Just don't talk to loud on the westside. Ha.

Cathy McMorris Rodgers I could be in love...or at least a strong case of like.

Right there with you! They kept saying in the commentary that conventions don't create bumps in tight races. I don't know if that is true...but they sure make supporters feel a lot more enthusiastic.

If you met her, it would be love.

[Rheo]

Classy ladies again. I'm thrilled.

Boehner and the bar story was class-less. It didn't resonate with me.

Listen, quit listening to the men. The women are knocking it out of the park tonight. The men should stay barefoot and singing.

True that. They are fabulous.

 

edited to add: the women are fabulous. The guys are a tad off key.

[pollyannaish]

I will say these women tick off liberal women. Not only are the strong, capable antivictimization women...they have their babies and they like their men and....they are good looking!

[Rheo]

I'm loving this.

[pollyannaish]

Off topic: I really like the classy but understated stage. It is appropriate to the times. Sophisticated without being stuffy, interesting without being ostentatious.

[Pepper]

OK, some winning comments from the women!

But Clear got in one,

What channels are you all watching?
