RNC

I didn't manage to avoid the RNC entirely. In addition to Jon Stewart's Daily Show coverage, I saw a couple of minutes of both Fred Thompson and Joe Lieberman: between them, they seem to muster all the charisma of a dead fish.
Mind you, I did like Lieberman's exhortation to "vote for the person you know will be the best president, not just for your party": given that he was speaking to the republican convention at the time, the words seemed well chosen....

The Daily Show had the best line so far, though: "Will Sarah Palin prove to be an unqualified success?"

Yours, in avoidance,
N.
