[pollyannaish]

I want my children to live in a second American Century

 

Me too. I pray for that every day.

Hey, Chris, you didn't build that

 

[pollyannaish]

I really do not want to be the generation that loses the dream.

Oy vey!

[pollyannaish]

A little something for the young 'uns.

 

Nice. I like it. Hard edged but still melodic.

CNN even seems impressed as I flip from channel to channel now.

[Geee]

Night Peeps. Low battery!!!

OK now the talking head on CNN says they try to make Romney more likeable with Ann's speach... . Did the republicans do what it takes to make Mitt America's choice?

[cudjo]

IIn '56 I was dating a guy that was a political nut, so had to watch and listen to both conventions, and many others through the years but the speechs tonight seemed better than any others, several really good ones

[WestVirginiaRebel]

Benediction.

Good news: Charlie Crist “proud” to stand with Barack Obama

 

 

"You can't fix stupid."

So far highlites on CNN seem fair. Certainly showing hitting what I would consider the high points.

What did you say?

[clearvision]

Gergen on CNN... very successful, Ann Romney in particular. One of the best speeches in years

[pollyannaish]

Wow. Gergen said that? Huh. What is it that Rush calls him?

 

What is Fox's take? (We used to have Cable, but since Obama came along, we can't afford it anymore. )

maybe some of the new members have my problem, I couldn't find CSpan for quite a while, finally had to ask Steph for help, now I'll remember it

[righteousmomma]

Pollya, fox commentators liked Ann - kudos of all kinds - and Christie ( varied in understanding of him)

[righteousmomma]

General thought was Christie's speech was "large" and not red meat but good and philosophically large.
