Advisers to President Obama are reportedly considering featuring some centrist Republicans at the Democratic National Convention this year in Charlotte, North Carolina. The idea is to speak "directly to independents, noting that we are all 'Americans first,'" according to an exclusive report from Politico:
The plans are spelled out in an early draft of the convention plan, providing an unusual glimpse of presidential advisers’ thought bubble about what viewers will see from the podium — closed captioning of what strategist David Axelrod and other top advisers are thinking about each element of the television spectacle. The detailed plans also offer a preliminary road map of the Obama campaign’s big themes for the fall.
The documents indicate the convention might focus on the notable accomplishments of Obama in his first term — the auto bailout, the Affordable Care Act, the killing of Osama Bin Laden, the repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell — while portraying Mitt Romney as an out of touch person who would destroy the middle class.

Watch early on in the Convention, perhaps on Thursday night, for an appearance by Donald Trump in a skit from NBC's leading show, The Apprentice, where he reviews the the failed and non work done by an apprentice President Barry Obama standin, and then utters those infamous words: "YOU'RE FIRED!" LOL!
Rerun time... Y'all keep a muzzle on Grandpa and a bar of soap handy to wash his mouth out with, okay? I need to keep the drunks in Salt Lake from hurting themselves or others...

Of course, that little skit is going to be prominant at the Republican Convention in Tampa, beginning Thursday night...but I just thought it was amusing that this post says that the Dems are looking for prominant Republicans to appear at their convention...good luck with that! LOL!
An appearance by Trump? Is this the best that Republicans can come up with that passes for comedy? Why don't they pair "the Donald" with "the Sarah"? Now THAT would be funny, watching them talk all over each other...and if Sarah got a little too mavericky with him, perhaps inquired as to what kind of animal that was on his head, and he yelled "You're Fired!" at her in a fit of comb-over rage, wouldn't THAT be something to see! Oh, yeah...seems the R's really don't want Sarah around the convention to remind them of how badly she tanked it for them last time around. You Betcha'! That could turn out to be one of their smartest moves of the last four years...easily beats anything they've done since the GOP primaries.
A skit about "The Apprentice" (YAWN)? Wow...I can wait to see it after SNL gets hold of it...at least then, it'll be funny.
Say Keith, wonder why they don't give YOU a speaking part, with you being in charge of cleaning Romney's shoes and all? Here's your chance to really "shine" for once. Oh...I see...swollen licking tongue syndrome, eh? Bummer... You could lie (you seem immensely proficient at that) and recite your favorite Mitt stories from your vast associations with him in MA back before you realized what an atrocious failure he was as governor, but you don't have to mention that little thing...that should kill 10 minutes or so. Then, you could discuss his in-depth knowledge of growing corn...but that probably won't even span a minute. Perhaps you could spend a few moments on how he "rescued" the Salt Lake games...you don't have to bring up the fact that the Feds supplied the dollars...most everybody already knows that anyway, but they might like to know how much of their (and the rest of the taxpayers) money was shelled out for those cutesy little Mitt Romney '02 Games souvenir pins...you know, the ones he ordered with his likeness.
Whatever you do, don't mention all his position reversals, aka flip-flops. I'm sure the Dems will be more than happy to take that out of your hands.
I can almost hear the snoring that would emanate from your speech. Oh wait a minute. Hmmm...that could easily be mistaken for a hurricane alert warning...never mind. Those Tampa Bay Floridians will have enough to bear just having the RNC in town, but I imagine the strip clubs and bars will see a hefty increase in their bottom lines immediately after it's all over. After all, the Republicans are coming to town, aren't they?
Nothing but MSNBC poisioned pap for the miniscule office of lame brain left wingnuts that sock up there drivel nightly from you Eye Wide Shut. Surely your can do better than that trying to refute my comments made on other post topics in the past couple of weeks that stick in your fevered, feeble mind as they do in your craw! LOL!.
One of your more unmistakable features is that you're under the impression that everyone thinks so highly of you. Erroneous conclusion.
What you fail to realize is that in that regard, you're a party of one. Just look in a mirror...see that image? That's the sum total of members in the "I like Keith Longey" fan club.
I don't really have to try hard to refute anything you say, as you usually make a botch of anything you post. You see, when you make accusations you can't back up with any factual evidence, you lose credibility, just as you have done. Other posters have noticed your failure to produce, but you were running on empty at the time anyway.
Mildly curious, Keith...what does the "W" stand for? My guess is "Wuss"...or perhaps "Wussy". "Weak"?
Ah yes...yet another classical example of English grammar from a self-ordained "learned man". Perhaps you should enroll in a middle school (or elementary, if that works better for you...wouldn't want you floundering on day one, would we?) class for English grammar with an emphasis on spelling.
Like I said...a party of one.
