Pataki
George Pataki is the Republican Dick Gephardt, right?
UPDATE: I don't know if anyone else watched him speak (I only caught a bit of it myself), but there was a part where Pataki would say "George Bush said he'd [cut taxes/reform schools/end the separation of chirch and state]. He said he'd do it. And he did." (with the crowd chanting the last line with him) There were four or five of these lines. I wish they had added one more:
"George Bush said he'd bring Osama bin Laden, the man behind the worst attacks on American soil, to justice, dead or alive. George Bush said he'd do it." You can fill in the last line, but something makes me think that the delegates would have responded "And he did... get Saddam Hussein."

He's the same damned fool who said the statue of Saddam in Baghdad should be melted down and incorporated into the foundations of the new buildings at Ground Zero. As if one thing had anything at all to do with the other.
Besides all that, he's a freakin' Yankees fan.
