Theme of the Night: Ugly, Desparate, and Nasty.

[Frank Booth]

For independents/dems who watched the convention tonight, I think the GOP shot itself in the foot.

But for those who didn't watch, the media's reaction will be "she beat expectations" just like we've heard about Bush for the past 8 years. So in the end, it'll probably be declared a good night for the GOP.

Oh, if only we had a real media in this country.

Regardless, this woman is obviously an empty suit, and all she can do is attack. All she has going for her is her personality, and if people start to see her as nasty and vicious, they'll lose independents.

1. As Andrea Mitchell said after talking to "Rudith Giuliani" ...

"The war is on."

WELL, THEN BRING IT ON -- we've got the SMARTEST
(and the TOUGHEST!) MOTHERFUCKERS IN THE ROOM!

4. They want to drag us into a war because it's the only chance they've got.

It's not like Palin could talk about her own qualifications for forty minutes, because she has none.

What's she going to say? Mayor of a town of 6,000, then lucked into governor by stabbing my Ted Stevens crony friends in the back?

2. By the sound of the speeches

You'd think Obama was the incumbent.

5. They have nothing else to run on.
