Woo Woo. Republicans convene. What is a Republican convention without Bush, Cheney, and Palin? What are these folks ashamed of?

Or do I misread the Tea leaves? And they are shameless?

God sent a hurricane.

Ron Paul sent himself and followers, who are reportedly disgruntled.

Bachmann is trying to maximize the attention she can capture from the media.

Some things never change, nor cease to amaze.

But no W. (not in person, but a "Bush 41, 43 film" sandwiched between performances by Pawlenty and Huckabee - whether the huckster is with/without guitar being unclear).

No Cheney.

Todd Akin? Probably not.

Norm? Grover Norquist? No official convention role for either?

The on-line encyclopedia Wikipedia locked former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty's page early Wednesday morning following Tuesday 's night's Colbert Report during which Stephen Colbert said he was editing the Pawlenty page.

Colbert told his audience he was changing the page to read that Pawlenty was the son of "Mrs. Butterworth" and that Pawlenty "started his career in Santa's workshop," among other things. Finally the political satirist said he wrote, "On August 10, 2012 Tim Pawlenty was named Mitt Romney's running mate."

I think he's Mrs. Doubtfire's son ...

Aside from Pawlenty's ancestry, WaPo helps, this link; no Norm, no Norquist.
