    “On Monday afternoon, at the opening of the convention. the Republicans will try to draw attention to the mounting debt by unveiling a debt clock in the Tampa Bay Times Forum, where the convention will be held.”

    That’s pretty stupid – they’ve got an awful lot of culpability on the debt, too. Less than the Donks, yes, but their hands are *far* from clean.

    “For this convention we also want to draw your attention to the unprecedented fiscal recklessness of the Obama administration depicted by the real time national debt clock shown here in the arena,” he said. For this convention we have actually installed a second national debt clock that will log the debt that accrues during the course of this convention.”
