just couldn't do it. I keep checking latest threads here to see if anyone has updates. Night, Longship, we can continue the fun tomorrow. I have never been more worried about Republicans getting elected. These are racist fascists.

Mia Love, a black Mormon running for Congress in Utah against an incumbent Democrat, gave a barn burner of a speech. If she were only a Dem, I would be proud of her. The fact that she spoke at RNC, I would be worried for that seat.

I think that is a seat Dems might lose, if we don't keep our shit together.

But, altogether, I do not see much positive. Other than Love, the rest of the multiple women on the docket are nothing more or less than Stepford wives.



Especially, Ann, who might as well have been an automaton.

I am watching this, so I can understand the landscape on which Obama's people orchestrate their convention. One cannot understand one without seeing the other.

There will be an evening of women at the DNC, including Fluke, and numerous others. I think this will sell the Dem ballot for women. It will be devastating, and the Repubs have a lot of record to campaign against. Furthermore, Obama has an actual record in support of these issues.
