A Tale of Two Convention Podiums

Hmm…what do these say to you?

The RNC podium says:

  • low-budget
  • nationalism
  • Americana
  • World Wrestling Federation
  • the 20th C.

The DNC set-up says:

  • high-budget
  • fresh
  • media-friendly
  • elegant
  • the future

Now let’s see which one translates into votes.

    Actually, the Rep’s looks scary to me almost Hitlerian with straight lines, it reminds me of a flag that has the straight line stars (British?).
    More importantly, I’m actually excited to be watching the Dem convention for the first time in years!!!
