Political Conventions. Who needs them anyway?
They have enough pomp and ceremony to make me think that I'm in England. And does anybody except the media and the hardliners on the left and the right really care about these things? Democratic National Convention or Republican National Convention it doesn't really matter. It's pro wrestling in suits and ties. I'm tired of hearing how the opponent is worse than the candidate. I want to hear how the candidate is good for America.
Having said that I can't really see John Kerry as the Commander-in-Chief. The guy is a plastic used car salesman who condecendes to the rest of us common folk. I'm tired of elected officials acting like they're their better in every way, especially intellectually, than those who elected them. What does this guy stand for anyway? Doing a better job than the current President? Good luck pal. Doing everything George Bush is doing, but only doing it better is not a platform. It's lame. It's almost as lame as having a 12 year old girl suggest that the Vice President be put in time-out because he said a bad word. Like that's what we need in a leader. Someone who teaches kids to wag their fingers in the face of authority figures. I'd rather stick to the guy we've got. Not that I'm really a fan of George W. but at least he stands for something. Like his politics or not its easier to vote for somebody who appears to have some character.

You go bro! Your analysis is spot on - especially taking note of how inappropriate it is for a 12-year old snooty girl to publically criticize the vice-president of the U.S. John Kerry is a phony. His only skill is to marry billionare widows!
