Lots more black faces
Obviously the Republicans have been singed by the many comments, including here, about the lack of black faces in the audience at the Republican National Convention on Tuesday night. I'm watching on PBS, and it seems a black or Asian face pops up every time the camera pans the crowd. Coincidence? A sudden surge of attendance by blacks eager to hear white men and women speak? Doubtful. Ringers? Perhaps. Or artful moving around of the few blacks there as delegates.
Right now, former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani is speaking and snarking his way through a predictable speech. And old white guys in cowboy hats are jumping up and down and yelling "Zero!" for what they have deluded themselves into believing is the sum total of Obama's experience. Giuliani is the worst. I feel like throwing something at the TV.
Now the delegates are working themselves into a frenzy, yelling "Drill, Baby, Drill!"
