What refreshing differences have you noticed between both the Democrat & Republican conventions?

Question

Yahoo must need a new coffee break as they wanted to place this in: Sports > Hockey

Answer 1

Well 1st off The Democrats Slammed McCain about Issues and they talked about what Specific plans they will have for the Presidency.  While the Republicans on the other hand continue to do what they do best, talk about Obama.  Not mentioning the Middle Class, or ANY specific plans about what they will do.

Answer 2

LoL @ yahoo!  When I asked about what a community organizer is, they wanted to put it in Electronics.

The one thing I liked about the Republican convention was the fact that they, unlike the democrats, are unwilling to pretend that Islamic terrorism doesn't exist by refusing to even mention it once.

Ironically enough, my favourite part of the DNC was the speeches given by the Clintons, neither of which I am big fans of right now.  They put on a really good show too!

Answer 3

The rioters outside.

Answer 4

Dems talk about issues. Reps talk about the world being evil.

Answer 5

Republicans served beer...............

Answer 6

Well the Democratic Convention looked more like America and the RNC looked like mostly old and grey haired white people, they had to keep waiting for the two black guys to come out of the restroom so they could get a closeup of them.

That and the amount of empty space in the RNC?

Answer 7

Well the Republicans were long on facts and it is interesting to note the democratic supporters who answered this choose to to ignore that and claim that there were no facts or plans.

Obama was full of hot air and it was refreshing to note real change was promised clearly to anyone with 20/20 vision by Gov Palin.

The Republicans spoke about the issues. Dems talk about the republicans being evil and used fairy tales to back up their wild flights of fantasy

Answer 8

The dems only complained without facts and the republicans offered real change especially when you consider they have nominated two (2) mavericks to be the nations next president and vice president.

Answer 9

repub's have a hero and dem's have a garage organizer

Answer 10

Lol Sarah Palin has now taken over Yahoo everyone!! She told them to suggest that every question goes into the Hockey Section.

Answer 11

Yep - Republicans respect their hard fought military men and have patriotism.

Democrats are anti-american, pro communist and immoral.  

Answer 12

Republicans refreshingly forgot not to be elitist as they slammed community organizers.

McCain snubbed Habitat for Humanity this morning after previously pursuing a photo op. Don't want to give those charities too much attention!

Answer 13

The Republican convention appeared to be in America and the Democratic convention appeared to be somewhere else.

Answer 14

Dems talk about how our country sucks. Republicans love our country.

Answer 15

It seems the dems stuck to lot more policy than the reps.

The reps seem to have done a lot more slamming of the dems .. than the dems did of the reps.

I had admired the dems for not doing so much slamming.

The reps seemed to have made it a theme - which I didn't enjoy much.

I agree with the coffee breaks - - Yahoo is having a lot of them today.

Answer 16

The rioters, definately. I agree with the previous poster. Also the hecklers that were removed from the convention. How spacious the event is, so much space.

Answer 17

refreshing differences? Obama is refreshingly different from Bush/mcCain.

Answer 18

Bush never showed.

Answer 19

The refreshing difference is that it isnt just old white guys anymore, we have a minority and a woman on the tickets!

It's funny, everyone is saying the Yamster wants everything to go to Hockey :-)

Answer 20

No mafia, I mean 'Chicago Machine', in St Paul.  

Although it is kind of a fun break from reality to listen to  Mayor Daley make attempts at intelligible sentences.

Curious, I may have missed it, but did Farrakhan speak in Denver?
