I disagree with a lot of what he said, but at least he wasn't combative. He was witty and personable. The rest of the speeches tonight were disgusting. Mitt Romney, a man who became rich running a company whose sole purpose was the ship American jobs overseas, offered this solution to the American economy: it's your fault--don't ask gov't to help--if you can't figure out how to fix this, that's your fault not the governments. Wow--I don't know that that's going to be well-received. Giuliani was too much. At a time when America is pleading for unity and hope, he literally made fun of hope. His tone was so abrasive, it was disgusting. Scare tactics and blame to the extreme, and I think that we've seen this enough to know it doesn't lead to good governance.

Her premise is telling us that taxes will be raised on everyone and no-one will have the money to create businesses or get ahead. It is only being raised on those making over $250,000. They say if the really wealthy will see their wealth shrink further, their businesses will suffer and they will let people be fired and more people will go on welfare. I think those who have that much money will still be prosperous and find loopholes. Obama will only lower taxes on those making 42,000 dollars and less. I only make 20,000 a month and that is with a trust fund distribution. I have lost alot of money in the market. If I have one more major illness, and I have had breast cancer, I will maybe lose my home. I am a senior citizen and still work, and am on social security. I feel I still need some relieve, not welfare; and there are millions more who have already lost homes, jobs, etc. They don't need welfare; they need some relieve and more jobs. Ms, Palin,

A pity that I've got to vote for McCain/Palin simply on the infanticide and gun control issues, despite the fact that they're evidently going to continue kicking the economy down the garbage chute.

Just like the repuplicans to cherry pick everything. take out the stuff that makes sence and will work, and pick out the stuff that some people are too lazy to look up what actually Obama says. If all of you make a chart for mccain and obama and look at the actual issues, no political fast talk, no cherry picking, no inssults or bashing and actually take a look at which each person will do as president. If you actually do that, you will see that Obama actually seems to have better ideas and long term plans to get us off forign oil that we are practically paying the terrorists for it, and focus on wind and solor power,nuclear and many more. p.s. Just wonderin, what does being a POW have to do with being a president. Answer, Nothing just paining mccain as a hero. I'm not denying he is, just, what does that have to do with the election If the Rep. say Obama will raise taxes, that is right, only for 5% of America.

His hypocracy showed once again when he had supported flagging signs of COUNTRY FIRST, when he put his self interest first. He chose a woman we do not know and one who does NOT put her family first. That is why she could not spend enough time with her daughter and give her the wisdom to not throw her body at other boys, like the one calling himself a f..ng redneck! Wow that is a mom! That a quality to choose, what values did she give her daughter! McCain was too busy being selfish and trying "by any means necessary" to get his way, regardless of how it would affect this country.

How hypocritical after swft-boating Senator Kerry and several other military veteran canidates over the last few years and using American militry heros to boast their agenda - Like Tillamen. Amerians need to stop using our military personnel for political agendas; instead respect and appreiate their service to the country.

We do owe a debt to our honorable veterans, but we don't need sappy stories to reinforce this idea. Don't get me started with Rudy. He needs to take a long shower...he is soooooo dirty!!!!

He had the chance to make people believe that the republican candidate was able to come up with a strategy which would benefit our country. Rather he continued with the same old same old and ripped others down to hide behind his own inefficiency. The selfishness which is used by a mother to drag her challenged baby into a race and expose her children to the media which she knows is not easy on families, shows her priority. Her selfishness and her ability to make decisions outside of her family and not even control her own family by failing her own "abstinence only" philosophy is a signal that she cannot and is not capable of practing what she preaches. I am proud of women running for office but as a woman of color I know that this is only acceptable because she is white. Michelle Obama would have NEVER gotten away with this. I am disgusted by the republican party. I lost respect for Guliani when he stole the AIDS money from the city of New York and now he has completely lost everything, I will not have the ability to take him at anything he says again. What a wasteful night he showed, what a shame he showed in being so low to spend a whole night knocking everyone down!

Every democrat that spoke at the DNC was gracious and respectful when mentioning the rebublicans, including John McCain, but at the RNC, the republicans are down right insulting. They think they are funny, but I think that it is just sad that this is what it takes for them to win an election. It's not clever, it's not funny, I think it's just plain immature. It's no wonder that the republicans have caused such a mess when they have the maturity of thirteen year olds. I know this is a hotly contested election, and there will be attacks back and forth.
