brigdhThat was way more boring than crazy. How do VP candidates get away with talking about their family for what seemed like half of the speech?
Even the little ticker thing at the bottom of the screen agreed with me. It couldn't even find quotes from the speech to run, and just stayed blank most of the time.
However, this convention still wins for crazy with the moment when Romney announced "radical, violent Islam is evil, and he will defeat it" (which happened to be the moment I turned on the TV, for a particularly creepy beginning), and the crowd went wild. And it sure seemed to me like they'd be cheering just as much without the adjectives in front of Islam.
