The American public is tired of this BS. We do not need another George Bush/ Chaney candidate.

2. Absolutley no policy. But the american public isn't that educated they are counting on it.
We can't We have to hope they are smart enough to know the difference, because they are just going to paint themselves as US

4. All sarcasm and NO SUBSTANCE ...

Hillary ended up LOSING because she ran a campaign that
was TOO ANGRY ... Have they learned nothing? Well,
hopefully so (!).

5. I agree. Where was the substance? There wasn't any.
What was the point of her speech? It was entirely made up of snappy one liners mocking Obama. No solutions. No policy.

The talking points are that she attacked, but she did it in a "classy" way. David Brooks was peeing all over himself to make this point. His stuttering gave away the truth that he didn't believe it, but they'll try repeating it enough times that it sticks.

We'll see. Does America want a creative, dynamic, brilliant team, or a team with nothing but a tired POW story and cheap insults? I've been disappointed before, but I don't think we will be this year.

7. Typical redmeat speech. Attack the elite press, attack big city values(which are the same as
small town values, I might add), and use culture values.
