Maybe.
What we are going to see is continued posts by some people who claim they are not supporters of McCain and those who claim they are rummaging around the blogs and screaming yeah yeah yeah, over and over again about how McCain has it in the bag.

Well then - I challenge all of you to the same wager that I've made to NP nearly 7 months ago.

Absolutely. This convention was a huge bust.

Re: GOP Convention thread

I dunno. I thought he did very well. I feel much better about voting for him now. Palin helped me feel better about it too. I don't think I will have to hold my nose now when I vote. I can breathe again.

I can't understand how anyone can NOT like John McCain. I understand party loyalty and that's all well and good BUT... McCain and Palin ROCKS in my humble opinion.

Just vote your conscience and we'll all be fine.

But, whoever wins, isn't everyone tired of all this "us and them?" Let's all try to be Americans again. United. We have a good thing going here in America. We should all realize that.

Good night "my friends."

I thought that it did accomplish one thing: It dispelled a lot of the nasty rumors about Sarah Palin. Unfortunately for the Republicans, it didn't accomplish much else.

Liking him, sure. But I don't agree with him on any of his policies.

Exactly, which is why Obama is the total package. And why I still have to ask, when will McCain actually tell us what he is going to do? Shake Washington up? Be a Maverick? Introduce Barracuda (hahaha) Palin, the moose shootin hockey mom to Washington? Cool...we get it, you like to party.

Now tell us something you are going to do to turn back the disaster of the last eight years.
