Well, I mean, how many surprises were there (aside from the shot of Hilllary sitting next to Willlie Nelson). Or that the "other" Carrie, Miss Sarah Jessica Parker (and Mattie B) were there, too.
Actually, to me, the biggest surprise of the Convention was how much I liked (and I'm almost embarassed to say it, because I always rather hated him before, thinking him rather opportunist and bigoted) the Rev. Al Sharpton. My favorite part of his speech was when he said that "If George W. Bush had appointed the Supreme Court in 1954, I venture to say to you that Clarence Thomas would never have made it to law school." (Perhaps not his exact words, but pretty damn close, alright?)
The other surprise? How much I watched it... and enjoyed it. I got all patriotic and sentimental. I really had fun, even, when they weren't saying much of anything. Whatever, it's over now, and I can tell you that I don't plan to be paying much attention to what the Republicans are saying. I mean, it's not like George W. Bush can do much of anything to win my vote.
