The crowd listening to Romney dont seem very convinced.

While he may convince diehard Republicans his speech didnt seem to have impressed the crowd. Do people think he can grab the swing votes attention ? Personally I dont think he will.

"I am not just a candidate. I am the President."

Best line in either Convention.

After picking Paul Ryan it's going to be a real hard sell.

Yeah Polite,there sure seemed to be some real disinterested gentleman directly behind him.One clearly paying him no mind,another clearly rolling his eyes at his central point.

The RNC did seem a bit....uneasy. Maybe it was the outside tempature? Or that Tampa came close to a hurricane? Or that their party created more regulations to keep a popular person from getting nominated and thereby show everyone else, that the GOP isnt solidly behind Mr. Romney's nomination? Must be the water, that last one cant be it, right?

While the DNC seemed like a real party every night. Like folks were having fun both in the convention hall and all those side parties. The mood seemed optimistic.

Supposedly, both candidates just have to keep playing to their 'base' to come out and vote in 60 days because the swing vote is so small this year. However, I doubt Romney is convincing any of the many republicans who voted for Obama in '08 not to do so again.

I know Mike that was my first thought watching the video.

Its like Mitt couldnt find any Republicans wanting to listen, so he invited some Democrat voters to the hall in exchange for food stamps.

I really think he does not believe he is the person and is in shock! It show on his face all of the time!

He has the look of a dear just before the car hits him!!

I'd swear that the woman in the pink top is reminding her hubby that the lawn was supposed to have been mowed yesterday!

Generally the crowd looks as energised as a flat battery. And Mittens is flailing his arm helplessly ......

That the "empty chair" got more viewers than Vulture and Voucher, ...even here on this forum(comments wise regarding the right leaners) says so much.
None of it good, for the RNC
