High Above Invesco Field In The Press Box

Today, August 28, 2008, is the fourth and final day of the Democratic National Convention and I am high above Invesco Field in the press box as Stevie Wonder practices his performance for later tonight.

To be honest with you, the convention stage reminds me some of the stage George W. Bush used to accept his Party's nomination at the 2004 Republican National Convention.

Remember this:

That's what the stage at field level resembles...columns and all.

Dammit,  I knew the Democrats had done something wrong last time around.  Who would have thunk it was nominating Bush?

Will they ever learn!?!?

If Stevie Wonder says he thinks the decorations seem excessive, THEN I will start worrying.

Good one!  I think someone already made the joke that he WILL notice.

How appropriate for a team that will be Bush-Cheney all over again.   Callow youth plus aged advisor.  

Biden's had a chance to observe that partnership for 8 years now, and probably accepted VP because he relishes being the power behind the throne.  

And, all in all, I'd 10 times rather have a Biden pulling the empty suit's strings than a Cheney.

Why would he want to emulate or remind people of Bush?!
