A Liar Among Liars

Fred Thompson's speech is just about entirely untethered to reality, but after a cold start, he's finally warmed up, and I'll give him this: he'd be a much better general election candidate for the GOP than John McCain.

Update: One thing Thompson could have done but didn't do is to offer just one single reason why America should endure another four years like the last eight.

Also, here's a photo from the convention floor taken earlier in the day that I thought what was pretty telling:

Update 2: Twice, Lieberman has lied and called himself a Democrat. He's not. He's an independent. Moreover, he's also called all his Democratic senate colleagues liars. I'll leave it up to Democratic senators to figure out what they need to do, but if I were them, he'd never be allowed inside the Democratic caucus room again.
