MB was gracious enough to host last night’s watch party and he asked me to do tonight’s.
Tonight, by the way, is the night that the Norfolk chapter of Drinking Liberally meets. (6-8pm, The New Belmont). So let’s have a virtual meeting 😀 Like that gathering, we welcome liberals and non-liberals, drinkers and non-drinkers alike. Come back here about 8:30 (yeah, I know the speech will get started a bit later but we gotta get warmed up 😉 ), grab your favorite beverage, and let’s do some convention-watching.
Until then, feel free to leave your comments about what you expect tonight.
UPDATE: Check out this preview of McCain’s speech.
UPDATE2: McCain’s speech is supposed to start at 9:11 CT (10:11 ET)

Everytime I see Cindy, I think of a “Stepford wife”. Or a zombie Barbie doll.
Really? Because the vibe I get from the interactions there is some serious War of the Roses stuff.
“Not break with our heritage”? Huh?
Okay, now she’s creeping me out.
Because when I look at Cindy McCain, I think “hockey mom.”
Totally.
Not at all darvocet-poppin’-pool-boy-bonking-ever-embittering mom.
Definitely hockey mom.
Tonight, we’re all hockey moms!
Not.
This is one of the most boring speeches I’ve ever heard. It’s almost like she’s never even read the speech before and is desperately trying to keep up with the teleprompter.
I also don’t think the no podium idea was good. It makes it even more obvious that she’s turning to the left to read a teleprompter, looks straight ahead to read another, and to the right for another. It really distracts from any content that she might give us.
Boy, I bet that other one is either really pissed, or really thankful, right now.
okay. self censoring now. because what’s coming to mind ought not be committed to print.
(That’s 37!)
Sorry – had to read that article on the McCain money. Really interesting stuff in there.
Politics aside, not exactly a textbook business case, eh?
Ah, shoot. Redskins lost, 16-7
Not at all, MB. Raises some interesting questions, though, should McCain be elected.
Ok, can I just say that EVERYTHING is off tonight.
Joe Gibbs should have been on the sidelines instead of at the RNC, Jason Campbell should be shipped to Alaska via a one-way ticket and it would have been nice if Plaxico Burress would have been Moose hunting tonight instead of playing ball.
Sigh….0-1.
