++Please remember Willard is 65-years old so he can be forgiven for his slips after the night of his life. He called the United States a corporation today at the Florida pep rally. I guess he picked up on Clint Eastwood's statement,"We own this country."
++Clint Eastwood is trending big time on twitter while Romney isn't.
++Ann Romney ket her speech go to her head. She said today that "Now the ground-ups are coming to save America. " She also told the peasants that "we are used to passing up multi-million dollar jobs."
++Leonard Nimoy narrated a great bio of Romney on he John Stewart show, "Mitt--A Human Being Who Built That".
++The Obama campaign released a devastating video using "V" for Vendetta as a backdrop for the RNC and cut to Barack Obama's appearing at the 2008 Convention with the Star Wars theme covering the scrolling copy about President Obama.
++One Wag said that "The Chair didn't recognize Clint Eastwood."
++Others noted that Abe Simpson appeared on a cartoon paper with the headline, "Old Man Yells at Chair."
++The GOP Platform declared that Medicare was unconstitutional.
++Tom Stemberg of Staples voiced concerned about "lactation chambers" in the new healthcare bill,which of course it is not. He claimed all his retail stores would be forced to install these for nursing women.
I guess that's better than "death panels".
++Supporters of the Dream Act heckled Romney today because he did not mention immigration in his speech.
++The Christian Science Monitor had a long piece basically panning the Romney speech and asked,"Can you trust him?"
++Intratrade, the Dublin based betting line, had the odds of Obama winning 56.8%, a slight jump from 55.7% after Romney's speech.
++David Koch, the owner of Paul Ryan, went off the reservation last night when he endorsed same-sex marriage, thought his own taxes should be raised and suggested cutting the defense budget.
++Vice President Joe Biden didn't miss a trick. He learned that GM would be adding shifts at Lordstown in Ohio and promptly campaigned there and took Paul Ryan to task for his statements about the Janesville plant in Wisconsin. He pointed to the number of jobs saved by the auto bailout and zinged Romney with his position and mentioned that all the jobs were in places like Lordstown, Dayton and Toledo and not China.
++Princeton Consortium surprised me today with a projection that the Democrats would take back the House by a slim margin claiming that the popular vote in the presidential means six seats for every percentage point. They also project Democrats will retain the Senate by a 50-51 seat margin.
++Gallup has Obama ahead 47-46 in their tracking poll, while their approval rating is an anemic 45%.
