Romney used the word "rich" tonight?

Guess it's a term he's quite comfortable with.

Transportation snafus. Blatent racism by delegates. Horrible speakers. So many lies, even FOX called them out. Senile man talking to empty chair. It was laughable.

...would have been the Reagan hologram. It would have been so apropos; an artificial rendering of a contrarian career phony who the GOP has desperately worked to create a revisionist historical perspective of.

Instead, we got Rick Santorum talking about giving hands jobs, Paul Ryan's blatant contempt for the fact-checking industry, Chris Christie unofficially announcing his 2016 bid, a huge middle finger to Ron Paul's grassroots base, peanut-chucking Klansmen, and an overall theme built around a cheap smear attempt based on a non-quote.

Oh yeah. And Dirty Harry talking to his imaginary friend. That part made me slightly teary, because Clint is clearly in the early-to-middle stages of Alzheimer's. Shameless of the slimeballs to prop him up for a cheap media stunt.
