Lol Yuma local news had more on the President in Iowa than the convention.

"Breaking with tradition, the President is making a series of visits at colleges to motivate students to support him"

break to a huge Iowa audience of enthusiastic college students screaming their support for the President who

states "I will not support another huge tax break for the very rich in this country on the backs of the middle class or by cutting funds to ten millions of students"

more wild cheering.

Conservative market town and a conservative channel but the President's team had a more compelling message on the Republican's big night.

Now I am sure that later on they will have more gavel to gavel convention coverage but I am not sure how many people will watch that.

It just shows how smart the President's folks are in getting ahead on the news and how determined he is to not sit back.

Oh we just changed the channel and Ellen is with Bill Clinton.

So much for sitting back and letting the Republicans have their little convention time, lol.

I love it.
