During the Republican National Convention I wrote several stories, about 15, but I have only uploaded three of them on this blog. Most of the stories were reports of the main speeches, but here you can read the GOP's previous story, that I wrote on August 31st, which explains that McCain will have to distinguish himself from George W. Bush during the convention but without rejecting completely the most conservative heritage of his party. As you will see, it is mainly based on a presentation by the University of Minnesota´s Lawrence Jacobs.
The second sample is a story about the real beginning of the GOP, after Gustav, on Tuesday (September 2nd), and it explains that after having cancelled all the speeches the day before, the convention finally started amidst in the controversy about the pregnancy of Sarah Palin's daughter. It contains some quotes from republican delegates at the convention. In general, they say that it is a personal issue and give their opinion about Palin.
The last story uploaded is about McCain's speech. The headline says that McCain vows to change the United States if he becomes president with quotes from his acceptance speech.
