    you must have been high or in a deep deep sleep during the RNC cause you obvioulsy didn't watch it. Paul Ryan and Chris Christy were awful, lied and lied and provided 0 details, just bashed obama and took 0 responsibility for what they did under Bush, pretty much the same policies they are advocating.

    Clinton absolutely SCHOOLED them and would DESTROY ALL OF them in a debate.. Put Romney, Ryan, Christy in the same room with Clinton, let them debate and no-one will end up voting for any of them, Clinton would simply turn them to mashed potatoes...

    republicans have themselves to blame for getting owned tonight by Bubba - they didn't provide any details of their solutions and distorted facts (Ryan was masterfully dishonest and clinton took him apart). Returdicans made a mistake last week, weren't they told Bubba was gonna speak tonight? did they not know? You can't foll Bubba!

    Well sorry, we don't need a "people person" we need austerity.

    I don't think you quite understand that the medicine the American economy needs to recover is not going to be popular with Democrats.

    Sure it comes to no surprise but I hate Bill. He is a sly sneaky character that can do anything and still get people to like him as he has the gift of the silver tongue. However what people dont realize is when it looks like he is patting you on the back he is actually stabbing you in the back. Lots of the republicans and democrats you can really point out where the say stupid stuff and jump on it can call them out on it but bill l has such a sneaky way where even if he says something stupid people will some how convince themselves that it is some how right in a way just because bill said it.

    Better ratings.
    Bitter speakers.
    Bottom candidate.

    It is a real disaster for the RNC.

    Aren't you kinda gettin' ahead of yerself here.This isn't some Banana Republic.
    Where Dictators are glorified and put on high.We the People will decide
    how relevant Bill Clinton was tonight.Not even the Lapdog media can decide that.
    Because we already know what they think.The People decide just how credible
    and honorable a speaker is.Personally I don't feel many americans want to be
    pointed at { with crooked finger } by some President who was found guilty of
    Lying { looked straight in the TV and LIED to all americans } and then acts goofy proud
    as if the entire scandal never happened.If Clinton was a republican no Democrat alive with
    tolerate for a living minute his appearance in public.Look what they did and still do
    to Newt Gingrich.All Bill Clinton represents to Democrats is a guy who somehow managed to
    appear popular.That's all it takes with democrats.
    Honesty,principle,integrity,seriousness ... Be Doggoned.Just appear Likable.

    Yeah, I work for a living. Maybe you should try it sometime instead of living off taxpayer dollars.

    You do realize that it's almost impossible to live exclusively on welfare payments, right? They're barely enough to afford food and rent.

    What more does anyone need? There is goodwill, etc for clothing and rest.

    There are plenty of people complacent to live like that. Most people on welfare are so lazy that as long as they have food in their bellies and a roof over their head, they're content to live like that forever.

    You act as if the poor aren't resourceful enough to make extra money under the table or *gasp* steal remorselessly from anyone else.

    IMO only 25% of the nation has any real ambition, the rest just want to take the path of least resistance.

    Obama leans left? LOL. You need to learn what is the left. He is moderate, centrist(and being centrist is not good always). Being centrist as the world proves means that there are no differences, both parties do exactly the same. Just there are some small differences.

    Centrist to you means anyone to the right of Lenin and Trotsky. Meanwhile the rich and upper middle classes are fleeing your crappy country in droves and taking their money with them. Kind of hard to tax someone who doesn't live there and tax money that isn't sitting in Spanish banks.

    An emphasis on austerity is bound to fail. Joseph Stiglitz predicted in 2010 that Europe’s austerity measures would aggravate weakness and make things worse. Greece and Spain wound up with 50% youth unemployment; Spain got 20% unemployment overall.

    Herbert Hoover and Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon reacted to the stock market crash by imposing austerity, resulting in the Great Depression. The IMF forced it in East Asia, Korea, Thailand, and Indonesia, and it failed miserably.

    That is what happens if you don’t invest in education, technology, and infrastructure, yet the debt wranglers relentlessly hawk this theme despite it being a proven failed experiment over and over again.

    Why would intelligent authorities indulge in such irresponsible intransigence? It’s as if something is compelling them to go this way, or as if they secretely want things to get worse (for everyone but the upper crust).

    I've never seen anybody able to get things across in such a simple, down-to-earth way. He was great!

    Definitely! His speech hit the nail on head. He outed Romney and Ryan as the frauds they are!

    Well by that logic, then, the economy under Obama would have been better, had not the Tea Party Reps taken over the House in 2010.

    Seems to me that Wallstreet has had a boom no matter which President, which suggests that Wall street and mega wealthy get richer, no matter WTF happens.

    So much for the argument that the rich are "uncertain". These people could care less who gets elected, because for them, life is a game, and they can manipulate whichever elements they wish, and buy off whichever Congressmen they want.

    I am anti-marxist, I don't like any of both mentioned.

    Ah, and rich are really happy in Spain, because they are being favored with each decission, while the lower classes are with the water in the neck and the middle class(here I mean educated people with higher studies) need to emigrate to find jobs. Yeah.

    And Obama is center-right, and if you compare any moderate left in Europe, I am saying center-left(that for me would be rightist) Obama is on his right. For you Obama is leftist because you are so biased to the right, that anything a bit moderate for you is already extremely leftist. I don't know what you would think about real leftists applying real leftist policies.

    The left one of the first things that never would have done is bailout the banks and any corporation. The left, real left would colectivize that, in two ways:

    - Giving it to the workers
    - Nationalizing(option of the authoritarian communists/socialists that I don't like)

    Spain is already over 50% of youth unemployment and about 23-24% of unemployment overall, and wait for the results of September because can be terrible, with a considerable raise of the unemployment. The only region in Spain that saves is Basque Country because has its own management of the territory and more independence from the awful decissions taken by the central government.

    For the rest I agree with you :)

    Spain will have terrible times, more because we are having continuos cuts in education and healthcare. It's awful, really dark times are coming, how it is said in reference to Game of Thrones: "Winter is coming".

    The battle has gone well. We almost took Culps hill the 1st day. Yesterday, we almost took Little Round Top.

    Today, we the old Democratic party, now called the Republican party, will mass our guns at the center, as we unfurl our Confederate Flag for all to see. We will follow our glorious General Romney Lee to victory. Onward men, follow General Ryan Pickett and take that Cemetery Ridge today, for your sons, for your grandsons, and for Dixie! HOO RAH!

    I know right! They also removed the letter "a" from their platform. I guess that means they hate the alphabet according to your logic.

    I didn't see it. I'll have to check it out. However, he doesn't want Obama reelected, so I'm not too worried. Whatever he said during his speech, he is working behind the scenes to make sure Obama loses and Bill remains big man on the Democrat campus.
