Whatever Subby, Americans will jump at the chance to vote for a candidate promoting tax cuts for the rich, a war with Iran, doing whatever Israel says, and reigned in civil rights for minorities. Obama is toast.

Should provide an interesting study on convention bounce effects on polls.

They could just invite Palin and Bachmann to fill in the empty time.

well, they don't really have any ideas, or plans, so the question is why bother to have a convention at all?

Submitter obviously is quite unfamiliar with the governor of North Carolina. Democrats aren't upset that she's unknown.

Palin can play the flute, and Bachmann can eat corn dogs in a sexually suggestive way.

Well, that and they kind of already have a candidate. Why not have a one day convention? Vote in the morning, acceptance speech in the evening. Everyone goes home or stays for the coke-fueled orgy with lobbyists later that night.

Of course, that would suck for the hospitality biz of the host city, so I get it.

I honestly believe the DNC should invite the Republican frontrunners to speak.

So, today is "ineffectual leadership" day.
...which means tomorrow is "actively tearing apart the fabric of American society" day...

If you're talking about "plans that matter", you're right, they don't have plans to make the wealthy wealthier, the Muslims Muslim-ier (i.e., Sharia-ier), or the environment shiattier.

Everyone loses with the Dems.

So vote.... well, you know the drill. :-)

i don't even see why there has to be an election. i mean, it's inconceivable that anyone would even consider voting for anyone besides obama.

the republicans will probably get like, 2 votes or something.

How about a distance competition for vagina-launched ping pong balls
/Or is that only a sport in Bangkok?

Doesn't the DNC also involve electing party officials? Like the party chairman and so on? And setting the official party platform (or at least voting on it) for however many years?

No one's contesting the actual presidential nomination, but there's other stuff to do.

Marcus can play on team Bachmann, but the rules may need to be adjusted a bit.

Because it's three days of free news cycle wins.

If they can book Michelle Malkin, sure. I heard she can also smoke cigarettes with her pussy and asshole.
