Is there any video of the convention speeches (McDonnell, Hannity, etc.) anywhere on the Internet?
thank you, justin. i like this post, so i can jump around easily.
ps. i might take some hits at NLS because i made a comment about obama. those people are still drinking the kool-aid. they think sotomayor is a GOOD choice. incredible.
i just went to steve shannon’s website (because i am a downstater, i don’t much about him beyond what i read from yall). not a good website.
KC is winning the website battle. that’s a damn good place to start at least.
Hmmm… I have to disagree with you there. Shannon’s site seems light years above Cuccinelli’s. That is my one serious worry about Ken… he doesn’t yet get new media…
If anyone finds the cadet’s speech anywhere, please let us know!!
FYI, here’s a small (but key) excerpt from his speech:

Justin, thanks for the kind words. You also have some great photos in your http://tooconservative.com/?p=4130 post.
But, um, why do you think seersucker and bow ties are funny? For Richmond, that’s not funny, that’s well-dressed.
The entire speech delivered by Cadet Adnan Barqawi is here:

i love seersucker & bow ties.
Thanks Rick. I’m getting this to everyone I can!
kelley, sorry I never got up to your section to say Hi. It looked like a LONG way up there!
ric, definitely nosebleed. but hey Ric, i got to meet bulletproof which was a thrill (for him or me?).
I hope the lead the charge in eradicating the seersucker / bow tie look for Republican men.
Horrible.
kelley, I’m sure he’d say the pleasure was all his!
You know, the hilarous thing about that guy in the seersucker and yellow bow tie? As I got back to the Doubletree where I was staying, he and his girlfriend got into the elevator with me and my family. We exchanged a few words on the way up and when I fired up my laptop in the room I saw the picture of him here! Weird!
This guy looks like a wiener……..i mean winner
Bob,
Best of luck. You have my vote! Let’s get Virginia back on track!
[...] sure to check out his round-up, thoughts, and [...]
My wife won’t let me buy seersucker.
