*****Republican National Convention thread. Let the games begin.*****

Nice reference to the "Clinton Machine", and the coming onslaught.
They know very well what is coming, and it won't be easy.

Pence: Oh dear me NO. He is way, way, way too conservative for me. He is more conservative than Trump.
This won't do. Nope.

Yes, Educational choice!

Good. Just like our trolls here.

Trump isn't conservative at all.

To some he is. It all just depends on where you fall out in the spectrum.

I like the tone of the convention tonight.
Last night was great too - one hit after another on Hillary.
But tonight there seems to have been much more emphasis on Trump, and what he can do for our country.

As they should - they are nothing short of criminal

I can't wait until debate season.

Be honest. Were you going to vote Democrat-lite Kasich or Bush instead of Clinton or Sanders?

I really don't think he has ever functioned along conservative lines. On taxation maybe, but that's all I can think of.

He's more conservative than the alternatives.

Every now and then, I flip to CNN for a minute or two. Every banner they place under Pence describes something he did that was LIBERAL...or not Conservative enough. Like voting against the Iraq War... or Expanding ObamaCare Medicaid in Indiana...etc.

Note: Don't stay on CNN long. Viewers give them the ability to charge advertisers more $$$.

I agree. It makes much more sense than last night. A vast improvement.

It doesn't take much to be more conservative than what we have now.

If he cleans house in the bureaucracy and trims the budget significantly and gets it running like he would run a business, then we still have made significant strides, IMO.

Pence calls out Hillary for ...

"What difference at this point does it make"



Pence is great.

I heard Pence say that same thing in another speech - regarding Benghazi, his marine son, and Hillary does not deserve to be Commander in Chief of our armed forces.
I was hoping he would say that again tonight.

When Pence is done he should go find Cruz and tell him to make him a sandwich.

CNN total failure.

The Democrat candidates will pay the price.

He seems to be more flexible on some social issues, but his foreign policies (bring back waterboarding; let everybody have nukes is very unsettling to me.)
