What to Look For Next Week in Charlotte

Now that we have heard all the snide comments from the MSNBC Dawgpound, get ready for all the gushing kudos in Charlotte. The latest insult came last night from Rachel Maddow, who didn't take to Clint Eastwood's performance (at least he didn't use a teleprompter, Rachel). She pointed out that he was 82 years old and called it the strangest speech ever given at a convention-or something similar. (I am paraphrasing, which is always a good idea when you are quoting Maddow.)

The Democratic answer to Eastwood will be desperate ex-housewife of Tony Parker Eva Longoria. I don't plan to catch her act. Matter of fact, I may not be catching any of it because I will be in Missouri drinking beer at my Army reunion all week long. There are priorities, you know.

But I digress.

I also hear that there will be a grande extravaganza on stage in which all the Democratic women in Congress will pose for a group photo. Don't they have one already?



It looks like one of the main themes will be the War on Women with Barbara McKulski giving a big speech. (She's number 67 in the 3rd row.)

Which segues perfectly into my next point. Who do you think will be the biggest speaker at the Convention?

That great defender of women's virtue himself-Bill Clinton.


 Now even if you think that Juanita Broaderick, Paula Jones and  Kathleen Willey are all liars, one cannot help remember how the Clinton machine dragged every one of Clinton's female accusers through the mud. Remember, "trailer park trash"?


"Uhhhhh, yeaaaah."

Then there will be LA Mayor and  convention chair Antonio Villar-aka Villaraigosa. (He changed his name when he married his wife, whose maiden name was Raigosa before she divorced him when he was having an affair with a reporter from the local Spanish-language news outlet who was assigned to cover him in City Hall, which she did quite well, thank you.) If they let this guy say more words than the above sentence, I pray it is on prime time so the nation can see what an empty suit Tony V. is. This guy makes Joe Biden look like Plato.




"C'MON!"

That was his most memorable line at the last convention he spoke at.

Finally, in honor of the theme of War on Women, the DNC is collaborating with that famed imam from Brooklyn, Siraj Wahhaj, who has some interesting views about women himself. I suggest to show proper respect, all the female delegates and politicians don burkas and hijabs for the length of the convention.

But one thing is for sure. The mad-hatters at MSNBC will be there and gushing all over themselves.
