    My wife has volunteered this week and she couldn't get a pass to the speeches. She spent her time at the Minneapolis convention center.

    They just had Rush on Foxnews, to be honest can only take Rush in very small dosages (hey, I've always loved to listen to all sides of talk)...but he is on there predicting that Biden will step down in the coming days and Hillary will step in. Now, I am sure the Obama contingent consults with Rush on a daily basis on campaign tactics, but I am surprised they shared that with him. :rolleyes:

    Where does he get this stuff?

    Tom Ridge has accomplished more than most of you could accomplish in 100 lifetimes. You act like Barack Uhhhhhhhhbama is some kind of untouchable public speaker. He goofed. Yeah, I guess it plays into the "GWB Part II" bread-and-butter plan but don't make too much out of it.

    Which, in context was a line about fights within his own party, and reaching across the aisle.

    Did you pay attention?
