Let's make a list of prominent Republicans who were not at the RNC convention, shall we?

Because Bush did such a great job that a speech from him, major power in the party, would sure give Willard a bump! I mean, Bush was awesome! Republicans and independents LOVED him!
And former veep Cheney, too. Remember him?

Obama “Befuddled” When Attempting To Make A Call On An iPhone, Blames Supporter For Having An Insufficient Cell Phone Plan…
Buffoon.
Via Washington Times:
On the campaign trail, President Obama is constantly talking about the importance of technology, but he met his match in an iPhone Sunday.
The president had stopped at a campaign office in Port St. Lucie, Fla., to thank volunteers. Then, for the cameras, Mr. Obama was supposed to call two campaign workers who were out working on his behalf.
But when White House trip director Marvin Nicholson handed the president his personal iPhone, Mr. Obama couldn’t get it to work. A reporter who witnessed the scene said the president looked “befuddled.”
“It’s not clear he knows how to dial on an iPhone,” the reporter wrote in a pool report.
Finally, Mr. Obama said, “Oh, I got to dial it in. Hold on, hold on. I can do this. See, I still have a BlackBerry.”
The president then “had a little more trouble dialing,” the pool report said.
The president then has more trouble dialing. When the call didn’t go through, he blamed Mr. Nicholson for having an insufficient cell phone plan.
A volunteer called out, “I’ll give you my phone, call my wife.”

How is it that the Dems were perfectly happy to have their prominent former president Clinton come and deliver a slamdunk speech, but the Reps kept George away? Couldn't be that they were afraid the voters would realize they're the party of Bush, Cheney, McCain, Palin, etc, etc, etc?

Your second post was actually your OP.
The thing is perg, when we act like children in discussions, how can we expect our politicians not to act as children. After all, it is us they are trying to reach, and if they think childish is the only behavior we relate to, then that's what we get.
We all need to do a bunch a growing up.

This is a dumb argument. It suggests the Dems have no one to be ashamed of.

They're responsible for their own behavior. I'm responsible for mine. If we have a major party that can't find a consistent, prominent leader, then of what use is it?
Bill is a true-blue million watt rock star of a politician and he did a good job as president.
The Republicans have nothing remotely similar.

Not at all. Rather, it explicitly states that the Reps have no one to be proud of. There are plenty of Dems who suck(ed). That's true of both parties. What's not true of one and is true of the other is prominent leaders with good reputations.

They don't have a recent one. The Dems have one recent one. It's not really a big difference.

I didn't hear of any dead air during the convention. What spots were they unable to fill? Were they able to bring Reagan back and chose not to?
Did the Dems invite Carter to speak?

There are how many living former presidents right now? Last time I checked both Bushes, Carter, and Clinton were still alive. Not a huge difference, no, but they also couldn't come up with a senator, a congressman, a former sec state, anyone with any charisma. No Cheney? Aw, gee, how come? No Palin? No McCain? Why?
