The breaking news is that as far as a convention speaker
goes, actor Clint Eastwood has no peer. As a matter of fact, Clint Eastwood remains
peerless in this
latest Pew Poll in that Eastwood has
no peer because he is tied with Nobody.
Now this is good news for Eastwood who stands as the only
living human to outpoll Mitt Romney as the convention watchers’ highlight of
the Republican convention.
The bad news is that he tied with No Highlight in Evidence.
The bad news for Mitt Romney is that, at 17%, he came in
third (again) behind Eastwood and Nobody.
Poor Mitt. When will he get some respect?
Especially now that the Democrats have had Day 1 of their convention
and people of both Democratic and Republican flavors are
saying that First Lady Michelle Obama issued a slam dunk speech, followed
closely behind by Mayor Julio Castro and Massachusetts’ Governor Deval Patrick.
You know, it’s really too bad that they don’t run a poll for
those who watch both conventions. I suspect that if the entire Republican crew
were to be rated against just the first day of the Democrat’s speakers we would
see even Clint Eastwood’s speech making skills fall short, and possibly become
supplanted by someone who never actually addressed the Republicans at their
convention, but who in his own terse way is far more eloquent than Clint, Mitt,
Paul, or anyone else for that matter.
And who is this speaker that I refer to?
Anyone remember Clyde?
