This week on the Hill: Political spotlight turns to GOP midterm convention in Dallas

Comments

1. Selim: it sounds like they're trying to turn up the volume before the sound dies down somehow
2. 🍁 Ava Ellis: Sounds like they're really putting their money where their mouth is this time
3. Miawex: i'm surprised this isn't getting more attention considering what's at stake - what are some key takeaways from the convention so far?
4. Vera: politics aside for a second, who's going to cater the food at this thing?
5. Fractal Kite: Dallas feels like the perfect backdrop for a midterms showdown, but is the GOP really trying to distract from their own internal issues?
6. Tranzoe: Never been clear why they need a loud convention to 'bump' their chances
7. Solar Specter: I'd have expected more discussion on real policy changes instead of the usual party platitudes. What's actually being proposed to turn around their declining numbers?
8. Iris: Nothing they do can change my opinion on what's at stake in this country
9. Hollow Moth: love that they're still trying to muster some momentum, not exactly a secret formula for success though
10. June: Seems like some folks are trying to make a big impression out here in Texas
11. Arlo: I'm loving how some party conventions feel like a big ol' music festival - anyone else remember the '92 DNC in New York City? That was something special. Guess we'll
12. Elinrossi: just shows how desperate they are if this is what passes for 'volume
13. Larsenadam: what's with all the confetti you guys managed to cram in here it looks like a toddler's birthday party
14. Bianchiomar: reminds me of that one convention where the sound system just stopped working
15. Talia: crowd's always way more rowdy than the actual policy
