He wasn't indirectly responsible either

Yup. He wasn't responsible at all.

Re: RNC convention

I thought Romney performed well and I intend to vote for him.

However, I am really tired of hearing that women are more important than men. He referenced that Ann's role was much more important and harder than his in the lives of his kids.

Perhaps that mentality is why there are so many absentee fathers.

Re: RNC convention

At this point my prediction for the election is that either Obama wins a very close vote or Romney wins by a surprisingly large margin like Reagan did in 1980.

I worked in Reagan's '80 Campaign as a volunteer at a state HQ and I remember that right up to the weekend before the election all of the polling had Reagan and Carter neck in neck.

My wife and I had rented a hotel room so we could watch the returns on tv before heading to the hotel ballroom for a victory celebration. We had stocked up with all kinds of snack foods expecting a very long night.

Then all of a sudden around 7 pm or so Jimmy Carter was giving a concession speech. We had to rush to get ready to head down to the hotel ballroom for the big celebration. LOL.

Re: RNC convention

I watched Clint Eastwood's speech and I thought he was masterfully artistic and refreshing. I don't understand the criticism Eastwood is taking for his speech.

Romney's speech was not refreshing.
Was I wrong to expect him to lay out clear ideas on how to move forward?
He's promising change, just like Obama did.
