8. I never miss GOP conventions.
They're a perfect reminder of how petty, mean, hypocritical, dishonest and stupid some people can be.

Very instructive viewing.

11. IF they don't get rained out...
... I might catch glimpses of it.

But go all out to watch it?

Let me clue you in on a phrase here. The second word is "off". Guess the first.

Mark.

PS Barack was AWESOME tonight.

12. I have to watch a small part of it.....
I cannot pass up the opportunity to observe, if only for a few minutes, "the last desperate throes" of the Repukelican Party. I'm hoping this election will put the final nails in their coffin. Thanks.

14. Thankfully I was on vacation this whole week to watch the convention
as it was aired here in the morning. Next week it's back to work, so sadly (no, not really) I won't watch.

I'm still waiting to see if Larry "the shill" King books Democrats to sit there and talk about the Republican Convention as he did the reverse this week. Personally I think he is full of **** and won't do it.

Anyone that missed Dean "I've got my head so far up McCain's ass it hurts" Cain on Larry King praising McCain, you should be glad because it almost made me throw up.

15. I don't think that I could stand it - watching and listening to
people whose major motivation is hate just bores me.

But what do you want to bet that their will be "PUMAS" in the same place as the former Repuke Obama supporters at the DNC?

21. I would not call it watching as much as gathering intel to defeat
the common enemy of the world.
