When I hear his voice, all I can hear is, “We have nothing to fear from an Obama presidency!” LOSER!

I’m having an awful flashback to 2008. After Palin’s electrifying speech of Wednesday night, up came McCain to throw a bucket of cold water the following night.

Wow! McCain pissed off about the security leaks. That’s more passion than I seen from the entire 2008 campaign.

In the jungle, the mighty jungle, Paul Ryan speaks tonight.

ROFL!

Couldn’t help myself.

My mind works in the same way sometimes when it comes to instant homophonic lyrics. I tend to get on my own nerves. ;-)

I appreciate what he’s saying- but he’s so...20th Century.

Mc is about as lackluster as he was when he campaigned in 2008.

The place sounds empty.

Nice to hear some shots at the kenyan from McCain.

He is in a unique position to attack Obozo’s foreing policy and he is doing what the other speakers have NOT addressed...I give him credit for that.

This speech is pretty good.
Must remember, he and Palin did garner close to half of the votes of the American electorate.

They both deserve respect.

JMHO
