Lynne Cheney knew Dick Cheney in high school.

We in the heartland can understand marrying for life, whereas some of our coastal “betters” (including those who were from the heartland and who found themselves as our coastal betters do not–hear me, unca Newt?) don’t bother.

Zell Miller really dealt the thunder. ‘Nuff said.

Enumerating weapons systems. Does he read Mark Steyn?

“Armed with what, spitballs?”

Holy, cow. Schwarzenneggar made me want to volunteer for campaign duty.

Zell Miller is speed-dialing my Marine recruiter for me.

Oh, my. Liberators, not occupiers.

Miller’s delivering like an evangelist preacher in an awakening tent, and he’s doing a bang up job.

He understands peace through strength.

He’s not calling Kerry by name (yet), but he’s close.

Where are such statesmen today? Zell, you have to know we’re going to say at that podium right now.

Zell’s on it. It’s for the children’s security, which is our security too.

Unfortunately, he just said “draft.”

They’re piping “Soul Man” into Madison Square Garden.

Am I the only one to remember that Sam and Dave wouldn’t let Bob Dole use that song in 1996?

Sam and Dave “Soul Man” lyrics

Sara Evans rocks.

Thank goodness that they didn’t summon forth the “popular” Gretchen Wilson, no matter how immigrant her name sounds.

Come to think of it, where’s Montgomery Gentry? They did a song called “Scarecrow” sort of like this.

The Step Forward refrain is good.

Marriage is between a man and a woman. Meat for the red crowd, but Romney’s not convincing Andrew Sullivan (no link on purpose).

He’s right about the national anthem reprise; our national anthem is quite the song of standing when assailed by enemies. (Okay, it was the British then, but the sentiment stands.)

Is God Bless You instead of God Bless America more personal? Call in the scholars!

Romney called our Iraq War a Just War.

Has he read St. Augustine?

He knocked outsourcing. Poor form, Peter.

If we’re so strong, our workers will provide more value than outsourced labor.

Romney:

“Sue me.” First belly laugh of the night.

Send in John Kerry…send in the clowns? I think I get it.

Kerry Healey. From Massachussetts. Is she related to Lt. Healy, with the State Police?

She’s enjoying her spot, which is better to watch than previous speakers who didn’t seem to enjoy what they were saying quite as much.

Building up Mitt Romney….for a run? What?

Oh, an introduction. Heh. Where’s my syllabus?

Which reminds me, where is Lee Greenwood?

I guess that’s for tomorrow night.

Okay, I said I would not comment on the Reagan video, but I will.

This video was “Taps.”

Ronald Reagan was “America the Beautiful.”

Michael Reagan is a professional, and he’s a Reagan. Finally, some life in the crowd.

Pro-Life. I guess there’s no more hiding the babykillers’ choice-killing ways.

An adoptee? Damn, the Republicans will take anyone. Immigrants, unwanted children….. Heartless fascists.

Another Winthrop allusion. Criminey, how come the Shining City on the Hill gets more play than the Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God phrase?

I will not comment on the video.

This Pennsylvania small business owner Blue Bell keeps calling herself black, which indicates she’s insensitive to minorities.

If she sees her skin color as nothing more than a physical characteristic like height or eye color, she could be a Republican because the Democrats would not have had her.

Yohanna de la Torres made it to New Mexico in like ten minutes?

Cripes, the moonbats are going to have a tizzy about that.
