Anyone have a better channel to watch on then C-Span? Thus far they have just set a camera in the room and let it go, like being inside almost. No GREAT MINDS THINKING for you, you watch you listen you learn or judge....no forced entry as some other places are "breaking down" the speech or cutting off speakers then saying why arent they filling out the time well......everyone thats hits the stage is shown un-interrupted.

By far the best channel - if you watch any other channel they are spin-spin-spinning it is ridiculous. How many times are they going to talk about the "division" of the delegates and how Clinton's delegates still aren't supporting Obama. As if a democratic delegate who is dedicated to the ideals of the party would just give up on the democratic nominee because it wasn't the original person they supported. They are trying to show how divided the democratic party is when this couldn't be farther from the truth. They are seeking out those very few delegates and interviewing them - it is ridiculous. Just like them beating into the ground that Hillary wasn't going to give up her delegates at the convention, as if this has never happened before (and she isn't doing that anyway). The media always pisses me off, but tonight they are more ridiculous than usual. Bunch of BS.

Agreed HH--these other places shouldnt start coverage until 10 oclock when the main speakers hit the stage, I found Cspan coverage today by accident and so glad I flipped through. Watching all the GREAT POLITICAL SPEAKING HEADS was just horrible lastnight, now I see the SMALL PEOPLE and the NOT SO IMPORTANT ONES onstage giving there reasons and examples of why they believe. You know the everyday people like US.

CSPAN and PPS. Just watch no BS. I tried some CNN/FOX. I cant watch. They think they have to twist someones thinking. I really don't need there help. They both suck.

Totally agree with C-SPAN. Don't you just hate it when they bring out the kooks that read body language and hand movement or facical expressions,FOX is big on this. I scan channels all the time and get amused when I see clowns giving an opinion on other clowns.
I've often wondered if they would just show GW giving his speech that took us to WAR if these so called experts that can read so much in a person's body language would tell the truth and expose GW for the liar that he his .

I love it when they keep saying that Hilary wants Obama o lose so she can run again in 4 years. But they never say that Romny wants McCain to lose so he can run again in 4 years! But in the Republican way if you repeat the lie enough times NASCAR Nation believes it.

Keep generalizing, and stereotyping.
Just like when somebody said that the market goes down when oil goes up (more then $1).
Well guess what, oil has gone up more then $1 each of the last 2 days, and the market was also up both of those days.

So Jethro, who is your favorite driver????

NASCAR nation is very old. Lots of NASCAR fans and some nice tracks up your way too, StevieD.

Thanks for the info on CSPAN. I'll have to see if I can get that channel.

I watched msnbc for 3 minutes and FOX for 20 seconds last night. That's about all I could take; I doubt I'll watch the other convention either. I miss the Olympics.

You are obviously a person who canonly think in black and white. Kind of like that WMD thing you feel for. But if in the eyes of NASCAR Nation I am wrong then so be it.
