In 2004 we saw a young obama at the DNC, I still remember hearing him for the first time. There was no doubt they had found a rising star, he had tremendous stage presents , and was very articulate without a question. Unfortunately the man did not live up to the voice, at least not for me.
Well last night at the RNC I had the same reaction to a young black woman named Mia Love, she was awesome and her future in the party looks very good. Will she have anything beyond the stage presence? only time will tell.
I also think Niki Haley was excellent and will be a major player in the future of the party. Scott Walker, Ryan Christie, and others are fresh faces in a party that's looking more like the Fresh Young Party, than the Grand Old Party.
No matter what happens in November I feel very good that this is a party on the rise with a bench that looks great.

He may have come bearing presents, like the The Three Wise Men.... but you really mean "presence."

Naahhhhh.... More like the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey combined.

Matty, when it comes to entertainment, you are masterful. |

Once again you prove you have nothing beyond your little immature insults. I would call you a joke or entertaining but insignificant would be more fitting. |

Matty, you're a funny guy. Call me anything you want -- just don't call me late for dinner.
Speaking of immature insults, here's one: "...but insignificant would be more fitting." |

matty--you are so careful to come off as well educated, careful in your comments, and respectful to others opinions and cultures. Why would anyone call you an ignorant bigot? |

Mac, I usually start off civil and some what respectful, until someone attacks me, then the Medfa boy comes out in me. What can I say? |

Bloomberg's mom still lives there last time I heard. Also famous for one of the largest bank heist in US history, and the first place the feds ever recorded a Mafia swearing in ceremony. Ship building and rum in the early days, and of course Paul Revere came through on his way to the North End. Boggs your sister probably had a blast at Tufts, nearby Davis and Harvard square are great places to hang out. |

Wait ----- yes, he was. I'm sticking up for my friend Matty. I seem to remember a post from him back in 2001 that was civil.
Or maybe that post was from Brucie.................

And, Matty, if you're reading this -- I think your city is pronounced "Meffah." The "d" is silent (too hard for you guys to pronounce it.)
BTW -- I remember Jumbo. Do you? |
