    I watched some of the DNC convention, and some of the RNC last night. Independent of your political philosophy, anyone else struck by the general tone differences? The GOP (last night anyway) seemed to be a message of opportunity. The DNC was full of grievance. One group says America is great and can be better. The other says America is deeply flawed and needs complete cleansing. The contrast is sharp and clear.

    It's so much easier to put on a good convention when you don't have to try and lie and mislead people on who you really are.

    I didn't watch any of the @dnc because they're a bunch of bullies, so if you're telling me it was all doom and gloom then I'll have to take your word for it.

    But I did tune in last night. And outside of Scott and Haley, who were pretty well measured, I felt like I was watching the opening ceremonies of an insurrection. Guilfoyle in particular was batshit insane throughout her entire speech.

    You purposely singled out the one speaker who did poorly in order to paint with a broad brush.
    That's mass market politics, baby.

    I actually liked her she did her speech like the crowd would have been there. She would have had them riled up multiple times.

    She has a pretty nice rack. So there's that.

    She's a Democrat


    Ok was. Can't believe she would marry Newsom. Speaks poorly for her

    Holy fuck -I was today many days old when I learned Kimberly Guilfoyle was married to Gavin Newsom.
