>> stephanie: were you in the hall for that? >> yeah, i was. >> stephanie: what was the feeling? >> the first feeling was the hologram wasn't working. [ laughter ] >> and because it's clint eastwood everybody strains to listen, and then it just started wandering. >> stephanie: somebody was commenting on the look on ann romney's face. >> i was sitting right next to her, so i couldn't see her face directly. no, i didn't actually see her face where from we were up in the top of the forum. >> stephanie: amazing you didn't get better seating. >> david shuster got the better seat. >> stephanie: yeah. boy, that cannot have gone the way the romney camp hoped. clearly he had no writers.

>> it's true but even the excitement over getting clint eastwood. he is 82 years old. who are they trying to address? the people that identify with clint eastwood now -- i feel like it was a poor decision from the very beginning. >> i disagree. million dollar baby is one of the best films -- >> stephanie: oh please i agree with michael. it was an attempt to nail down more angry white guys. >> that's exactly right. it is everything we have said all along which is rallying the base. if their base is 82 year old white guys they have them all right. the first night that it was really energetic of all three nights -- this was the first night when i walked in and felt like now i'm in a national

convention. and then ann romney clint, marco rubio, i think gave a rambling speech. it was his keynote moment, and that didn't happen. and going in to mittens after that, it was sort of tough. >> stephanie: i thought his speech was -- you know unremarkable. >> romney's speech? >> stephanie: yeah. >> i thought it was an ordinary but fine acceptance speech. i don't think it is a speech that people will be quoting a lot. but it was fine. it was capable. but it was just unremarkable, and full of lies but a lot of them are. this week has been just lie after lie. but a lot of these things, this is where they make their promises and smile. >> stephanie: people can always go -- people have always lied in politics, but it really does feel like this is playing differently, when you have fox news analysts criticizing paul

ryan. i think there is a line that i feel like they have crossed. >> yeah the line was crossed with paul ryan. it was a lie-filled speech and a lot of people caught on to that with ryan's speech and have been talking about it ever since, so i think that was an unusually mendatious speech. >> stephanie: yeah i think president obama even said michael when you get to the debates -- he said it's harder to do that face-to-face. >> exactly. when you watched mitt romney last night, you think about him up against president obama and he walked into that hall -- that's true -- we didn't even talk about that. the way he sort of came in to the hall -- i thought that was bizarre. >> stephanie: they did it like the state of the union. he came in through the audience shaking hands. >> right. >> stephanie: that was a little

heavy handed right? >> literally, yes. but he -- the whole -- seeing him just not looking presidential compared to what we're going to see out of obama in the debate is exactly what you were saying. it's going to be apples and oranges, and i think that is going to be really tough. and next week the democrats have to make sure just to tell white lies not, you know whoppers. >> they have got to be really really careful about that. >> stephanie: in the family values part it was nice to see the newt and callista skit wasn't it? which wife is this? >> not just which wife it is but look at what they were like -- it was like charlie mccarthy and -- >> but how awesome sarah palin didn't get invited, but callista did. imagine the rage. imagine how she is yelling at the help today. >> stephanie: yeah exactly.

michael what can we expect next week do you think, and -- i think there is such a difference too. a lot of people were saying i don't think this helped them with all -- it was a nice little show, but certainly having condoleezza rice and governor martinez but i don't think it will help a wit do you? >> right. and if you were in this hall, you would not -- another thing i said was that i saw all zero percent of the people -- the black americans that polled that they liked mitt romney. there is no way this helped them with minorities. i think next week you are going to see -- i would guess not a lot of reference to these three day, and just sort of a celebration in charlotte really

rallying behind the president. i think they saw the sort of lack of energy here and if they can send a message of energy next week, i think that will help them a lot. >> stephanie: they have done such a spectacular job in my opinion angering women, hispanics, african-americans, gays, pick any kind of group that -- you know -- i meal like they have gone out of their way to offend. i think there will be a tremendous amount of energy next week. >> yeah, i think there will be great energy. i think they will talk about everything that wasn't talked about here. what the president really has to do, and i think one of the problem at this -- you know, at this -- the convention here was that over the course of three days -- listen this place got cursed. isaac was a really big problem for them but if in charlotte the president is able to tell people -- to speak to all of the

americans that were not addressed here and there were a lot of americans that were not addressed at this convention he is going to have i think a great deal more success. >> stephanie: i think it's a given that we're going to lose the crotchety old men that yell at chairs. >> yeah, which i thought we had. >> stephanie: yeah. michael shure we will see you next week. >> thank you. [ applause ] >> stephanie: he is like fugelsang hand and romantic. janet also wants to talk about that. hi, janet. >> caller: hi stephanie. >> stephanie: how are you? >> caller: i'm great. i want to thank you guys for coming on, because every morning after the convention i needed to get my blood pressure

[ bell chimes ] >> stephanie: we may have to add a chair skit to our sexy liberal stage performance now. [ laughter ] >> yeah, stool skit of our own. i would like to bring this up and i want to hear your take on this. the attempt last night was to humanize mitt. >> stephanie: right. >> and i thought one of the most humanizing beautiful stories and elements that he told -- that mitt romney said in his speech was the story about his father and the flower. >> stephanie: right. >> but he was so bad at telling it, and disconnected from what it was as a story that -- first

of all they laughed at the florist line, which was meant to be a touching moment. was meant to be -- if you want to know how much my parents loved each other, ask the local florist because that tone would have set up the story. there was a woman grasping her face crying because of it. everybody should have cried from it, but nobody does. he tells the story about the rose and then breezes past it. it was amazingly small compared to how big the actual story was, and i think that is indicative of the humanity problem he has. >> stephanie: right. and of course it ended in death, which is a little bit of a jagged pill. >> yeah, every time you hear stories about reagan and nancy,

there is a sweetness to his life and her. and every time they talk about her, it is the same deal after his passing. none of that was there and i think there was an equal amount of that truth there, he just can't even grasp it. there is this weird plastic nature that i don't think he can get past. and the openly -- scott walker weeping at the thing was the weirdest part of the audience cut-a ways and the guy in the apollo creed outfit. [ laughter ] >> and playing living in america. after apollo creed heard living in america he died. he was killed in the ring by a russian. you are picking a fight with putin, and you have a black guy in an uncle sam outfit and you played living in america. >> stephanie: and how about the

look on ann romney's face during the clint eastwood skit. >> they got -- they got paul ryan cringing on camera. they literally got him wincing. >> yeah it looked like he just shot old yeller. >> how would mitt romney run the country? i think the big thing is outsourcing. you look at how mitt romney has run his campaign how he runs this particular convention was run, he has outsourced all of the major decisions to people like -- almost like he is waving his hand at somebody doing laundry, and he gets what he pays for. >> stephanie: exactly. and because we're libbers, and helpers, we have been saying all morning, clearly they were so excited to get clint eastwood they can't ask him if he prepared anything. and having the number 1 comedy

tour in the country, for the record we do prepare things in advance. [ bell chimes ] [ applause ] >> and aren't we supposed to grab on to everything -- the illusion is that liberals cling to celebrity like nobody's business, but even -- and liberals are supposed to be -- as hollywood loving as we're supposed to be we would prep the show. >> stephanie: we love you enough to prepare. >> yeah, and we wouldn't go we're so excited to have george clooney speaking we decided to let him do monologue from best in show. be the leader of your party when you are making these decisions, and if they -- if it goes poorly, it has to reflect on you. >> stephanie: yeah. absolutely. i'm not sure -- we were saying what group helped him this week except for angry old men that like to yell at chairs.
