Just now on the Morning Intern Killer Comedy Hour.
Brokaw and Scarborough are also mourning the absence of an "electrifying" Sarah Palin moment last night.

(14,656 posts)to discover a reason for the lack luster. The repubs should be celebrating their brand and candidate instead the audience, for the most part, whimpers response, shuns the Ron Paul delegates and the speakers generally fail to offer any solutions to buck up the country. It's depressing to watch but I won't miss a moment!

(14,656 posts)"You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear." I also think the convention has been run from the get go like a shot gun wedding. The repubs just could't get Mitt formally nominated fast enough.
Then there was the bruhaha of the Ron Paul delegates, the booing with the Puerto Rico lady at the podium...Boehner's ridiculous bar analogy speech, mixed messages on needing or not needing love from ANN and Christie, ad infinitum. I don't know how they could possibly put a positive spin on an event that was not handled as well as most high school proms. imho Sorry for the rant!

Even better - the party should shit can romney and ryan and nominate palin.
She's their only hope.
