Republicans Plan Counter-Convention in Charlotte, NC
Sure, Democrats had some spokespeople wandering around Tampa, Fla. But Republicans plan to bracket Democrats’ Charlotte, N.C., convention with an unprecedented counter-convention right outside the gates of the Time Warner Cable Arena, where Democrats will gather after Labor Day.
As many as 50 “communicators” will travel straight from the Republican convention, which wrapped up Tuesday in Tampa, up to Charlotte, where Democrats kick off their convention in earnest on Tuesday, according to a plan provided to ABC News.
Primetime speakers from the Republican event who will travel up to Charlotte include RNC Chairman Reince Priebus, Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, and Govs. Nikki Haley of South Carolina and Mary Fallin of Oklahoma. They’ll hone in on a theme – “Obama Isn’t Working” – and offer rapid response, daily videos to counter the Democrats’ message.
It will be an effort full of gimmicks, including a Romney-Ryan NASCAR race car – number 12 for 2012, of course.
And while Democrats have happily made light of Mitt Romney’s “Etch A Sketch” foible, Republicans will bring their own toys, including “You Build It” Legos and “You Build It” Monopoly.
Republicans have tried to woo independent voters who supported President Obama in 2008 but are disappointed in his performance.
To that point, they’ll have plenty of Kleenex – “because breaking up is hard to do” – according to the plan.
They will also provide a mock “leaked copy of Obama’s second term agenda.” But it’ll be a blank binder. Get it?

A Christian musician, Steve Camp, once had a song where he declared that he wanted to have a ministry “a yard from the gates of Hell”.
This comes pretty close to doing that. God bless ‘em.

Our secret weapon is Rimshot Joe Biden. If the GOP really wants to screw up the ‘RAT convention, we need to send Rimshot Joe Biden to Charlotte while the ‘RAT convention is being held.
Biden opened up that can of whoop ass himself.
I think the GOP and the RNC have finally grown a pair.
I hope your right. Paul Ryan on the ticket is a big plus. It is time for the GOP to explain why conservative constitutional values defend the freedom of all Americans.
It can be done.
