Ace wrote about this yesterday but I didn’t have time to look at the list until now. Go see for yourself. I went through it being as objective as I could about who might be interesting to watch as a young, impressive, highly touted leader of the future in the Rubio, Ryan, Christie, Jindal, Susana Martinez, Rand Paul, Brian Sandoval, Mia Love mold. Out of a list of 75 or so names, here’s what I’ve got — and I’m stretching even on some of these, just so that I’ve got something.
– Cory Booker, who hasn’t held statewide office; – Julian Castro, who also hasn’t held statewide office but apparently is the best Democrats can do by way of a Rubio-esque Latino political rising star; – Tammy Baldwin, who’s far left even by the standards of the House Democratic caucus and is highly likely to lose to Tommy Thompson in this year’s Wisconsin Senate race; – Kamala Harris, the AG of California and certified union stooge, who’ll likely follow Jerry Brown as Democratic administrator of the state’s Greece-like fiscal disintegration

I might tune in just to see the snooze fest.
Honestly, I don’t see what the DNC can do to top the RNC, and thats not saying much since the RNC as a whole has itself seen better years!
No Villaraigosa?
The RATS have to have terrible speakers to make Obama look better. Don’t forget, they’re pandering to the lowest common denominator. I don’t plan to watch a second of it.
Don’t forget Martin O’Malley, Maryland’s tax and spend governor and 2016 wannabe. By then, the state of Maryland will be fiscal train wreck. The situation is even called unsustainable by some within his own administration.
The only one I want to see is Bite-Me....a love a good laugh.
What about Malloy from CT ?
He’s an Obama boot licker.
No Villaraigosa?”””
HE is the convention chairman!!! Mr La Raza himself!!!
The Democrats have evolved into nothing more than the organization behind the Cult of Personality Obama. There is nothing behind him. One could argue Cuomo of NY, but other than him, they have no governors of any significance, lost most of there Senators and congress members who would have some presence (Feingold gone, Bayh gone, etc). Next week’s show is all about Bill Clinton and Obama.
It will be a freak show.........
It's gunna make the Paul Wellstone funeral look like, ummm, a funeral.
Well, quite frankly, I hope the future of our country doesn’t depend on “young, impressive, highly touted leader(s) of the future in the Rubio, Ryan, Christie, Jindal, Susana Martinez, Rand Paul, Brian Sandoval, Mia Love mold.”
But I have to agree that, if the Republicans mentioned are not all that impressive, the Democrat speakers will be far, far worse. And I hate to think who they might drag out of Hollywood to match Clint Eastwood.
Joe Biden is looking better all the time!
Cronies and sycophants on parade.
Quite an contrast to Mitt’s list accomplished and successful Governors.
It will be “We’ve done it and this his how” to... FSD I don’t know what they can say.
Are they going to have the sign-language-for-the-deaf feature like they used to? I haven’t watched in 20 years, that’s why I’m asking.
The Republican convention set the ‘mold’.
Now, the Democrats are scrambling furiously to attempt to DUPLICATE it.
Because that’s all they’ve got. That’s all they ever had.
Imitating others Creative skills.
Newark, NJ Mayor Cory Booker seems as close to having his head screwed on straight as any RAT politician I’ve been exposed to lately. He’s the one who passed by a house fire while on his way to work one morning, before the FD arrived. He went in and rescued an occupant.
We might be able to turn him if we get the opportunity.
The GOP has the ‘enthusiasm’ this year that the D’s had in ‘08. Honestly, who’d have ever thought there could be enthusiasm for Romney? Respect and admiration, OK, so he is seriously accomplished, but enthusiasm?
“..a wretched hive of scum and villainy...”
No code-pinko dancing tacos?

I heard that in response to the RNC having RON PAUL, the DNC is going to have RU PAUL.
In response to the RNC having Clint Eastwood, the DNC is having Nidal Malik Hasan.
I see them fighting off Redford, Steisand, Streep, Gaudaufule, that Comedy Channel freak, Bill Maher, and the usual bunch of Brits and Canadians that suckle at the teat of Hollywood.
Yeah. They could have Obuma host a "beer summit" for Jimmy and his old nemesis, right on the podium.
Bet he doesnt talk about his tax increase of 2 billion dollars,and the News just released yesterday that home values in Fairfield county have fallen 13 percent in the last quarter and the recession in ct. is worse than they thought! Worse than they thought with a 2 Billion dollar tax increase? They really are Brain Dead!
Typical Democrat Hero and rising star,Tax the Hell out of the poor Schlubs and Kiss the ass of the Unions.

Code Pink has just endorsed Ron Paul - LOL
Actually, I don’t think President Obama would want anyone on the agenda who could possible upstage him. He is that insecure.
Only if they can find one highly skilled in signing PROFANITY.
The enthusiasm's for Ryan.
GOOD. Allow him to bask in it.
I want a President who makes positive accomplishments, behind the scenes. From what I can tell, Romney would rather roll up his sleeves and get to work, than sitting around during this convention. The thought that he would have a VP who was good at dealing with the public just makes the combo seem something we really need.
(excellent job. It is your work ?)
Here are two of the guests.
If there’s a camera...Tony’s there.
I bet with all of the celebrities supporting Obama, they will turn it into a variety show.
No, it’s a recycle from the previous election cycles.
It comes up every election with new names.......
Works for me.
Just look at the names...it’s a Token Line Up.
That’s what the Demonrats of today have become. Race, ethnicity, Islam, race, gender, biracial, homosexuality, race, transgender, ethnicity, perversion, and race.
Cher, George Clooney, Ellen Barkin, Alec Baldwin, Michael Moore, Eva Langoria, Sarah Parker, Samuel Jackson, Streisand, Melanie Griffith, Antono Bandaras, Matt Damon, Shakira, Michael Jordan, Tom Hanks, Jennifer Anniston, and the list goes on and on.
‘no Villaraigosa?”
They’re handing that out at the door in the gift bags along with the Cialis, condoms and X-tends.
Did I miss Sheila Jackson Lee? Please tell me she is in the list.
Probably, but that's a "spontaneous outbreak of support" and as such is unlisted.
Surprise guest like Hanks or such is inevitable.
Who is going to watch this dribble after a long holiday weekend? The lucky ones won’t even be near a tv.
I noticed one signing away during Ryan's speech, lower podium stage right.
