Let the conventions be what they really are, a big old party to celebrate the nominee, not to name the nominee. Might even cut the cost of running for national office. Come to think of I am supprised the media are allowing this to happen, think of all the lost commercial air time, the ad agencies must be going nuts at the prospect!WV wants to be a player on Feb. 5http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/06/07/217497.aspx#217828Fri, 08 Jun 2007 00:06:30 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:217828Paul Miller, Woodbridge, VAOhhh, interesting point, Melba.

I'll give the devil his due. Robert Byrd is a racist and a moron, but that man knows how to give a speech. When he speaks and Sean Hannitty puts country roads in the background, I can listen to him for hours speak of the beauty and the love of his home state. Too bad Al Gore can't say the same for Tennessee, but of course, he lost that one to Bush in 2000. At least they knew what Allah Al was all about.
