I have to say, that as a professional woman who would most likely be identified as a democrat by those who don’t know me well, the first night of the convention was a total flop. Michelle delivered the speech she needed to deliver; Senator Kennedy inspired the crowd.
Thats it.
You would have thought that the democrats might have sent out attack dogs to challenge the Bush Administration. It didn’t happen.
As a small business owner AND a woman I am appalled at the thought that the democratic party takes me for granted and assumes that I enjoy higher taxes and more regulation. I can’t believe they would suggest that because I’m pro-choice I automatically fall into their camp.
I am a proud capitalist, pro-choice republican who happens to be female. I can’t wait until next week when we see the GOP start messing up their little party that started out there in Denver.

Today starts the Democratic Convention from Denver. I’m eager to see how the dems align themselves for the general election against Senator McCain. It looks like they will roll the dice and move to the left. Let’s take a look at the speaker lineup:
Monday - Michelle Obama / Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi / Jesse Jackson - How about that for a “mainstream America” lineup?
Tuesday - Senator Hillary Clinton / Former VA Gov Mark Warner / NY Gov David Paterson / AFL-CIO President John Sweeney - We moderate just a little from Monday.
Wednesday - VP Nominee Senator Joe Biden / Tom Daschle / Bill Richardson / John Kerry / Sentate Majority Leader Harry Reid - I can’t believe they put Kerry on this list.
Thursday - Senator Barack Obama accepts the nomination for President.
I don’t know about you - but I think this list confirms the notion that Senator Obama has given up on winning in the South. He has also given up on mainstream America.
