Politics...

We watched the Republican National Convention.... on CSPAN. We had begun watching it on CNN but we only got to hear what CNN thought we should see and that was just so annoying. And since yesterday we been watching the Democratic National Convention. 

I have to say though RNC was a little bit of a snoozer. The NJ Governor gave such an emotional speech the rest I almost fell asleep. But definitely Romney gave his best speech that night! People complained about Eastwood, but I found him funny. Yeah, he made no sense and probably didn't provide any boost to numbers, but it was a good laugh. I thought he was playing his character from the movie - forget the name now! 

The speakers at DNC were better speakers! Just wow...they kept me captivated. I am just talking about their communications style.  And the way the evening was organised, speakers focused on certain themes was nice not just having one speaker after another just rambling!

And the First Lady Michelle Obama was just spectacular!!

D has been around when the TV was on. All through these weeks of campaigning, D recognises Obama immediately and shouts his name "Pedent-Obama". N says I should be fair and teach her Romney too. I do, I have, on many occasions, even before he had suggested the idea. She never remembers his name. She repeats it so cutely, "Rommy" but doesn't recognise him when she sees him.

I am happy and scared that I will be away election time and when we are back a new President or the incumbent will be (re)elected! ooof...
