What a disappointment. Crowds of crazies didn’t show. The entertainment some of us were eagerly looking forward to never happened.

What a waste. Thousands of cops all dressed up with nowhere to go. Huge chainlink holding pens standing empty. Pity.

I suspect that, for all our anticipation, the convention itself will turn out to be a bore, too. The Clintonistas will roll over. Turn up their other cheeks and forgive. Obama will get the conventional convention he’s praying for. No protesters in the streets, none in the convention hall. Ayers, Rezko, Wright, and Pflegger far, far away.

Ah well. We’ll have to wait for our entertainment until November and the traditional Democratic shock and disbelief at the election results.
