after the way Boner ran roughshod over all the Paulbots at the convention, telling them to shut up and do as they were told. There was little enough enthusiasm for Romney, slightly more for Ryan, but all the procedural shenanigans cast a pall over the whole convention. It was the most dispirited convention I've ever seen and I'm old.

The seeds of dissent for 2016 were sown at this convention. Whether they reap the whole crop then and blow themselves apart or not, it's going to be a total bloodbath. All the devils the party made deals with want to take over and they're in no mood to behave.
