Hi Marie,
We posted it in the middle of the day yesterday, which is why it was not in yesterday's email. Sorry! Thanks for reading!

This is really great that you posted this. If we could only get the major networks to cover the convention, maybe people would be in a position to make an informed decision.

RNC entertainment is LAME. the only thing worse is watching republicans dance to the music. The best entertainers are generally democrats. Good thing entertainment has no bearing on my vote. Even my favorite music acts can't put a good polish on Obama/Biden.

Well Adam, on night one of the RNC I had to watch a one man country act and a handful of middle aged women in mom jeans shaking booty. While I politically agree with all of those women, the visual was painful. Ultimately, the music won't matter, because Romney/Ryan will win.

@ Evan;
Yep you are right on the money with the "Obama/Biden" entertainment package! Kind of reminds me of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. A drunk and a brianless partner.
