Anglesea, Sir Reginald P. Smithers III Esq. LLC, STP. " wrote: hk wrote: Eisboch wrote: "hk" wrote in message m...

Hillary was absolutely masterful, Bill was damned good, Biden was good and will get much better as he adapts to his new speechwriters.. I am surprised you are not upset about Biden showing off his grandchildren. Eisboch Why? It's traditional and appropriate at that moment- the end of the speech at a convention - for the candidate's family to appear on stage. Besides, Biden, especially, has a compelling family story, as I am sure you know. So...you're a Republican...what's your guess on the veep nom?

I vote for the person who I think will best serve the best interests of the USA in national and international issues, not for the one who will best forward a political party's agenda, developed through political compromise and back room deals. Eisboch You don't have to be "registered" to be a Republican or a Democrat. If you vote mostly Republican, you are a Republican. You vote mostly Republican, I am sure, especially for President. I am a registered Democrat. I haven't read through a Democratic party platform document in decades, probably not since 1970. I have no idea what is in this year's "platform," and I couldn't care less. My father in law is a lifelong registered Republican. I haven't asked him, but I suspect he has never ever read a GOP party platform document. I think you completely missed the point that Eisboch was making.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Really, I am registered repub, but have voted for more Democrats for pres, than repubs..
