1. By the end of Rmoney's speech tonight, I may need to

inject that list directly into my heart. Republicans are BAD for your health. Thanks for the antidote!

[CTyankee]

8. We all need a cleansing right now. One can only take so much...

[Jennicut]

2. Thanks for the list of speakers.

Looking forward to a lot of these speeches. I didn't know our Governor would be there.

[MatthewStLouis]

3. I can't wait. All the "ME ME ME" of the Greed Over People convention is making me ill. /nt

[FSogol]

4. Awesome list. n/t

[Armstead]

5. I can';t wait for the Big Dawg

I've been very critical of Clinton over the years for his policies.

But there is no one better at explaining and advocating for the basic Democratic argument and firing people up.

I hope they unleash the Big Dawg on the GOP without any muzzles so he can call out those GOP liars and get the truth to sink into the heads of those in the "middle."

[Armstead]

6. Costco's founder? Wonder if that is a direct response to the Romney's "homey" interview

The Romney's sang the praises of Costco....I wonder if they book its founder before or after that.

Would be wonderful if he debunks Mitt and Ann.

[CTyankee]

9. I think he'll be da bomb! He can talk about "we built it" from OUR perspective PLUS give

Ann and Mitt the razzmatazz on shopping at his store! It's bound to be funny!

[Grammy23]

7. I'm counting on this list of speakers to help

lift those of us who are suffering from what we've heard this week out of the pit of despair. We know the truth and it has been in very short supply this week. I pray that all of the speakers next week will make every effort to keep their speeches clean, and free of anything not fully vetted or not quite true. We just can't stoop to the tactics of the other side and still call ourselves honest. I know the truth will prevail if it is presented in sharp contrast to their lies. And what an amazing list of speakers. It is the perfect antidote to this week's lies-a-pah-looza.

10. No RNC on our TV...

There is nothing to be gained by watching a group of pathological liars group groping each other.

[Jack Sprat]

11. Day-um

I think Eva Longoria is a huge improvement on Clint's tired ass.
