An anti-GOP protesters shout slogans during a protest march at the streets of Tampa , Florida August 27, 2012. Some 200 protesters braved inclement weather Monday to protest Republican policies at the party convention in Tampa, Florida, but others stayed away as Tropical Storm Isaac made its presence felt. Grievances ranged across a wide spectrum of themes, from immigration and the economy to health care and abortion, as activists gathered in a downtown park ahead of a march on the convention center and a closing rally.

11. I bet $10,000 that at the Dems' convention

the GOP protester signs will say: Go back to Kenya; where is your birth certificate; repeal Obamacare, et al.,

And most signs will have miss spelled words.
