Executive summary: A lot of folks went through a lot of stuff in 2010 to get this guy in the Senate. Last night, he demonstrated why. Continue reading #rsrh Thursday’s RNC speeches: Marco Rubio.

The gay vampire look was very hip back then. Don’t act like you don’t remember.
To quote Lileks: It was the way of my people.
Truth be told, I dunno whether @InvisibleObama is on my side, or on the Other Side’s. Either way, my advice on this? You got 47+ K followers out of this, dude. MONETIZE THAT. My wife recommends blank white T-shirts, or maybe this picture, or something cheap and quick and easily-flogged on the market. Capitalism, baby: capitalism.
Drawing on this, this, and this… I’ll be honest. I was expecting a good deal more in the way of organized protests in Charlotte [Tampa: oops!] than what actually ended up being the case. So were various other folks; but we were all more or less startled to discovered that, compared to ’08, the ’12 antics were lame, sparse, and not particularly active.

We just know that basing it on ’08’s numbers is a mistake… but nobody knows how much of a mistake it’ll end up being. And while it’s easy for me to say “Well, they should just eyeball it and pick voting percentages that look right,” that’s because I’m not a professional pollster…

First off, here’s the video of the speech:
…and I recommend that you watch it if you haven’t, already. Executive summary: it was successful, but at the same time highly surreal. Continue reading Thursday’s RNC Speeches: Clint Eastwood.
Good closing speeches – especially Romney’s – but this is the important thing that you need to take away from it:
Eight billion, five hundred and thirty nine million, five hundred and twenty six thousand, three hundred and thirty three dollars and seven cents. That’s how much debt the country racked up since the convention started.
This. Must. Stop.

Revamp your scheduled speakers. The ones we’ve seen at the RNC so far is kicking your butts.
