The RNC 2012 ... So Far

Oh Boy… Where do I start? 

Okay maybe I will start with where I stand, I am registered as undeclared because I want the right to vote no matter if it is a republican or democratic primary. However my point of view leans towards the Democratic party. 

I watched Ann Romney last night. Honestly I feel a sleep a few times. However I was shocked to hear that everyone was impressed by her speech. I was thrown back when I heard that even NPR approved of her public speech skills.  

I none the less was not impressed. 

She stared straight ahead at one teleprompter, rarely scanning the crowd and not even giving herself the basic left, right, and center points in the audience to focus on. Secondly she stumbled over the simplicity of what her speech was. I’m pretty sure there was one point where she almost called Mitt “sexy” by accident. 

Paul Ryan was alllloott better on his presentation and he does have some pretty eyes. To be honest you can tell he took some Speech and Debate classes in college.  So well played there  Mr. Eddie Munster. 

However the Speeches contents leave a lot to be desired. Both of them. They both revolved around God, and Romney’s sense of humor. They both tried to make their team seem like they are normal everyday americans. Even though at one point I’m pretty sure Ryan admitted to living the “American Dream”. Which I am pretty sure is something that most Americans can’t achieve and that is why it is still referred to as a “dream”. 

I was told both night on the terrible things that Obama has not fixed, and how they will be fixed. However I have not been told how. 

Ann talked a lot about supporting women and how women have hard lives. Trying to make it seem like women are important but still kind of stereotyping them into a group, instead of just including both men and women, cause I’m pretty sure men have hard lives also.

Also there was all this talk from her on how women are important and have a right and blahblahblah but wasn’t it the republican party that recently stated that it is a women’s fault if she gets pregnant from rape and she enjoyed it enough that her body didn’t shut down properly? 

All in all, I am quite interested on tomorrows speech from the one and only. I’ll be sure to keep track on how many times god is mentioned in the speech. Cause you know, we are really keeping that god and state thing separate…
